Asanko Gold Ghana Limited has launched a comprehensive five-year Socio- Economic Development Plan (SEDP) at Manso-Nkwanta in the Amansie West District aimed at boosting socio- economic development in its host communities.
The plan, which forms a central pillar of the company's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) agenda, seeks to address critical developmental challenges in its operational areas, particularly within the Amansie West and Amansie South Districts.
Focused on key areas, including education, healthcare, infrastructure development, and economic empowerment, the SEDP is expected to significantly improve the living conditions of thousands of residents while building lasting partnerships for community progress.
Mr. Ahmed Mohadini-Yahaya, the General Manager of Asanko Gold Ghana Limited, speaking at the launch, underscored the company's unwavering commitment to ensuring that the benefits of mining go beyond mineral extraction to impact lives positively at the grassroots level.
This plan is not just a document. It is a promise to work hand-in-hand with the people of Amansie West and Amansie South to address persistent development issues and open new doors of opportunity," Mr. Mohadini-Yahaya stated. Stakeholders at the launch including the District Chief Executives for the two districts and traditional leaders expressed their gratitude to Asanko Gold for prioritizing community development in its corporate agenda.
