‘Save part of the cake for us’ – Ga Mantse asks Roads Ministry to create jobs quota for Ga indigenes

The Ga Mantse, Nii Teiko Tsuru II, has requested the Roads and Highways Ministry to set aside a portion of job opportunities for Ga indigenes working in the sector. The Ga Mantse believes this would allow those from Ga State to directly benefit from the development happening in the capital. He made this appeal during a visit from the Roads and Highways Minister, Governs Kwame Agbodza, who was received at the Ga Mantse Palace.

The traditional council is responding to concerns about a shortage of workers in the Roads and Highways sector. Nii Teiko Tsuru II emphasized that reserving a quota for Ga indigenes in engineering and artisan roles would benefit the people who host the capital. He expressed confidence in the Roads and Highways Minister's ability to manage projects and achieve targets ahead of Ghana's 70th anniversary.

Additionally, the Ga Mantse commended the Ministry's progress on road projects in the Ga State and called for support for the Ga Mantse Foundation, which is working on education, skills development, and welfare initiatives.
