The Adaklu Constituency of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has congratulated Governs Kwame Agbodza, the MP for the area, on his nomination as the Minister for Roads and Highways.
President John Dramani Mahama nominated Mr. Agbodza on Thursday, January 16, 2025.
“Your nomination is well deserved,” the congratulatory message, signed by Mr. Hayford Amenuvie, Constituency Secretary, and copied to the Ghana News Agency at Adaklu Waya, said on Saturday.
It noted that Mr. Agbodza’s tireless efforts in ensuring development, creating employment opportunities for the youth through apprenticeship, and driving progressive initiatives in the constituency had not gone unnoticed.
“Your dedication, passion, and commitment to the welfare of the people are truly inspiring,” the statement said.
It expressed confidence that he would bring the same level of enthusiasm and expertise to his new role as the Minister for Roads and Highways if confirmed.
“We wish you strength, wisdom, and success as you embark on this new journey and look forward to the positive impact you will make in bringing more development projects to the constituency, Volta Region, and Ghana at large.”
Mr. Jerry Ameko, the Adaklu Constituency NDC Chairman, told the GNA that he was optimistic Mr. Agbodza would perform to the expectations of Ghanaians and make the party proud.
He admitted that some of the road networks in the country were in poor condition but pleaded with Ghanaians to exercise patience as the government worked to fix them.
Mr. Ameko commended the people for voting massively for the party and assured them of more development projects under the President Mahama-led government.
Meanwhile, Tsiami Kpotaka, the linguist of Togbe Lablulu Tegbeza IV of Adaklu Waya, led some chiefs to the party office at Adaklu Waya to thank the gods for the nomination of Mr. Agbodza as the Minister-designate for Roads and Highways.
They poured libation to the gods and asked for their protection over the nominee in his new role.
They thanked President Mahama for fulfilling his campaign promise to them to make Mr. Agbodza a minister if he won the election.
Mr. Agbodza, if confirmed, will be the second person from Adaklu to head the Roads and Highways Ministry in the Fourth Republic.
The first person was the late Steve Akorli, who was appointed in 2000 during the tenure of Flt. Lt. Jerry John Rawlings.
