The Paramount Chief of the Komenda Traditional Area, Okatakyi Komeh VIII, has passionately appealed to the Minister for Roads and Highways, Governs Agbodza, for asphalt roads.
The chief urged the Minister to ensure that the Komenda Junction to Komenda township road, which is currently under construction, be fully asphalted.
The chief made this call during a visit by the Roads Minister and his deputy, Hon. Alhassan Suhuyini, accompanied by the Central Regional Minister and other officials, as they paid a courtesy call on the Komenda Traditional Council and inspected ongoing road projects in the area.
According to Okatakyi Komeh VIII, the stretch that runs through the Komenda Sugar Factory is of critical economic importance and must be constructed to withstand the weight of heavy-duty vehicles transporting raw materials and finished goods.
He warned against subjecting the community to substandard work, which he dismissed as a “Saa Petsi road” (a local term for inferior road projects).
The chief emphasized that the proper completion of the road is crucial for the revival of the Sugar Factory and the creation of employment opportunities for the youth in the area.
