Asante Chief at Anitemfi in the Ahafo-Ano South West, Nana Kwame Abrebrese, asserts that the digitalization initiative championed by Dr. Bawumia lacks relevance in the Anitemfi community of the Ashanti Region.
He questions how the digitization agenda can be realized in the area when students and various institutions lack access to electricity and mobile network connectivity.
Nana Abrebrese expresses dismay over the fact that approximately 48 communities in the region are devoid of proper lighting systems and suffer from inadequate mobile network coverage, thereby impeding the progress and well-being of the populace.
The area faces challenges such as poor road infrastructure connecting different communities and a deficient solar lighting system for the lone clinic in the vicinity.
Speaking during a visit by Mr. Johnson Asiedu Nkesiah, the national chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Nana Abrebrese laments that even after 67 years of Ghana’s independence, certain communities still lack the basic amenity of electricity.
In a solemn plea, the Chief calls upon the next NDC administration to prioritize the issues of electricity and road networks in their development agenda.
During his speech, the NDC national chairman urges the electorate to overwhelmingly support Mr. Sadick Abubakar as their next Member of Parliament (MP) for the area.
He emphasizes the need to transfer the mantle of MP for accelerated development and refutes the claim that the NPP was established solely for the people of Ashanti.
