The industrial city King, Nii Adjei Kraku ll and the Tema Stool secretary, Nii Amarh Somponu, have hailed the resourcefulness of President Akufo-Addo.
A statement copied to the Ghana News Agency in Accra said the King was marvelled at the readiness of the President to particularly execute abandoned projects.
On the sidelines of the President's visit to Tema, the King praised the President for infrastructural imprints that he was making on Tema, including the commissioning of a section of the Tema Motorway that government put under rehabilitation.
“As the traditional head of the Harbour city, it is not lost on me at all that I must be political, but the fact of the matter is that, the development of the infrastructure of Tema is a blessing that I am very thankful for. Appreciation that is not expressed is no different from ingratitude, and I am grateful,” Nii Tema said.
President Akufo-Addo’s call at Tema also saw him visit the Tema regional branch of the Driver Vehicle and Licensing Authority (DVLA), before he returned to Bankuman in Tema New Town for a grand durbar.
The President travelled together with dignitaries including; the Minister for Roads, Kwesi Amoako Atta, who guided him to cut sod for a project to asphalt the roads in Tema New Town.
Later, Nana Akufo-Addo met the Captains of Industry at the Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority Head office in Tema.
“This visit has obviously been very fruitful with the President cutting sod to initiate new projects, commissioning completed ones and granting audience to leaders of the business community in Tema. I want the President to know that we the people of Tema are very grateful,” Nii Adjei Kraku said.
