Former President John Dramani Mahama, the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) on Sunday gave the assurance that the next NDC government will continue with the sea defence project to cover the Ada to Ningo Prampram coastline.
Speaking at a church service to climax the 82nd Ada Asafotufiami Festival, former President Mahama said the first phase of the sea defence project, which was completed during his administration was helping to curb the fast rate of erosion of the beachfront.
“When I form my government in 2021, I want to assure you, Nene Akuaku, that we will reinforce the current sea defence works, and continue with the second phase. This will include; the Kablevu area, Lolonya, Goi, Anyamam, Akplabanya, Wokumagber to Ningo Prampram”, President Mahama announced in a statement copied to the Ghana News Agency in Accra.
Present at the church service were; Nene Abrem Kabu Akuaku III, Paramount Chief of Ada and President of the Ada Traditional Council, Chiefs and Queen Mothers of the Ada Traditional Area, the Local Council of Churches and citizens of Ada.
President Mahama congratulated the people of Ada for sustaining the annual celebration of the festival and noted that Ada was one of the few places, where their annual festival and the attendance of its citizens continued to see a yearly growth in interest and participation.
He challenged the chiefs and people to move to the next stage of developing a sustainable, local economic blueprint, that would harness the opportunities of the Ada area, which include; tourism, vegetable and fruit farming.
“You have one of the most resourced traditional areas of this country, and I urge you to move to the next step. Apart from the tourism and hospitality business opportunities, this area has also proven to be a fruit and vegetable basket”, he advised.

Sorry! You won't do anything again!!!
Desperate men talk desperately. Nana Addo has taken us out of IMF and with that you want to come and construct Sea Defence Wall? We know you will give out the contract on CREATE, LUUT and SHaRE basis..... Enough of your ranting to do this and that. We are enjoying free SHS, Nurses/teachers allowances are being paid, road works which you left in very deplorable state including your KAnazoe Eastern Corridor Road riddled with Man holes are seeing rehabilitation gradually. E-D-I-O-T keep going on promising spree and you will see your smoothness level by the 9th December, 2020. Hey J-U-L-O-R ooo ooH!!
I don't get it I won't take him serious as well. This man couldn't build a 'River Fencel" and now he's talking about Sea Defence. O.K great said and done!!!
