The Mpohor-Fiase District is set to receive a boost in local economic development following the official handover of drawings for the Government's 24-Hour Economy Market project at Adum Banso in the Western Region.
The project forms part of the Government of Ghana's agenda to stimulate economic growth, create jobs and improve livelihoods. It is being undertaken through the Ministry of Local Government, Decentralization and Rural Development, the Western Regional Coordinating Council and the District Assemblies Common Fund.
At a handover ceremony, consultant Devepro 360 Engineering Consult presented the architectural and technical drawings to the Mpohor-Fiase District Assembly and contractor Micador Construction Works, marking the commencement of construction. The facility is expected to be completed within 36 months.
The market is intended to provide a modern commercial hub to support trading, strengthen local commerce and create economic opportunities for residents. District Chief Executive Sophia Aubynn expressed appreciation to the Government and project partners, and affirmed the Assembly's support for successful and timely delivery.
Adum-Banso Chief Nana Kwandoh Brempong III welcomed the project and encouraged the contractor to deliver quality work on schedule, while calling on community members to support its implementation. Member of Parliament Kofi Bentil also commended the investment and pledged continued collaboration with the Assembly and stakeholders.
Micador Construction Works assured the Assembly and residents of its commitment to quality delivery, while the consultant pledged ongoing technical supervision. When completed, the market is expected to improve trading and investment opportunities and contribute to economic development across the district and Western Region.
