President Akufo-Addo will Tuesday begin a six-day tour of the newly created Oti, North East and Savanna Regions.
The President will start his tour from Jasikan in the Oti Region where he is expected to cut sod for the construction of the Jasikan-Dodi Pepesu road project captured under the list of projects to be completed through the two-billion-dollar Sinohydro bauxite barter deal.
