Then he proceeded to Bantama to inspect completed storm drains, followed by a visit to Ampabame to oversee ongoing construction works on the Bohyen phase 1 storm drain.
Later in the day, Hon Kojo Oppong-Nkrumah paid courtesy call on the Asantehene, Otumfour Osei Tutu II, who emphasized the importance of accelerating efforts to mitigate flooding and endorsed our decision to partner with the private sector to address the housing deficit.
