Transport Minister Joseph Bukari Nikpe praised the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA) for their recent accomplishments, highlighting the government's dedication to delivering high-quality public services. Nikpe stated that the DVLA's progress exemplifies the administration's dedication to building efficient, responsive, and accessible institutions that cater to the needs of the Ghanaian people.
Speaking at the inauguration of the DVLA's new ultra-modern office in Weija, Greater Accra Region, on October 29, 2026, Nikpe emphasized that the facility aligns with the government's decentralization agenda, which aims to bring essential services closer to citizens and ensure equitable access regardless of geographical location.
The minister also underscored the government's commitment to making public services accessible to all citizens and improving their operations for better service delivery. The new Weija office, which replaced the Authority's previous location at Gicel, Weija, Mile 11, promises to offer motorists and residents a more convenient, comfortable, and efficient service environment.
At the commissioning ceremony, six new initiatives were unveiled to modernize the Authority's operations, including a new number plate system, a Skills Development Centre, an E-Library, a Clone Detection System, instant printing of driving licenses, and a Biometric International Vehicle and Driver’s Permit. These measures are expected to boost operational efficiency, enhance the Authority's capacity, and improve the quality of services provided to motorists and clients.
Julius Neequaye Kotey, the DVLA Chief Executive Officer, expressed gratitude to the Transport Minister for commissioning the facility, describing it as a significant development for the Authority's staff and clients. The new facility and the six initiatives are part of the DVLA's broader strategy to modernize its operations and improve access to vehicle and driver licensing services nationwide.
