The President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, has said his Administration will remain resolute in its mission to address the socio-economic needs of the people.

“It has been my policy to get to the grounds and listen to the concerns of the citizenry.

“Governance is about the welfare of the people,” the President noted, assuring that his Administration would advance the good cause of the state to transform the lives of Ghanaians for the better.

Addressing the chiefs and people of Akropong in the Ashanti Region, he cited the implementation of numerous development projects nationwide, saying these initiatives had the objective of bringing prosperity to the citizenry.
