Nene Nuer Keteku IV, the Agotime Traditional Council President and Konor, has urged the government to prioritize the completion of the Kpetoe District Hospital and improved water supply in the Volta Region. The current lack of a fully equipped hospital forces residents to travel 30 kilometers or more to Ho for basic healthcare. During the 31st Agotime Kente Festival, Nene Nuer Keteku IV emphasized that the Kpetoe District Hospital is an essential service and not a luxury.
He also highlighted the persistent water shortage, with residents often relying on untreated sources like the Tordzie River, which places a heavy burden on families, especially women and children. The traditional ruler called for infrastructure support for Agotime Senior High School, including the reconstruction of its dilapidated administrative block, which poses safety risks.
Nene Nuer Keteku IV announced plans to establish a Kente Village and Centre of Excellence to promote artisan training, cultural research, and economic development, while acknowledging support from the Bank of Ghana. He urged the government and development partners to address healthcare, education, water, and infrastructure priorities to secure a sustainable future for the Agotime community.
