Obuasi authorities inspect ongoing health, education and sanitation projects

Officials in Obuasi, located in the Ashanti Region, conducted an evaluation of ongoing health, education, and sanitation projects in the Obuasi East and Obuasi Municipal assemblies. The inspection aimed to gauge progress, identify areas needing improvement, and call for further investments to enhance living conditions. Nana Kitikyie Apenteng Bosompim II, the Adansi Dompoase Krontihene, commented on the region's educational landscape, highlighting that Obuasi currently has just two senior high schools: Christ the King Senior High School and Obuasi Senior High Technical School.

While Christ the King continues to contribute to education, it still faces infrastructure challenges. Nana Kitikyie Apenteng Bosompim II emphasized the need for government interventions to meet the area's development needs and praised AngloGold Ashanti (AGA) Obuasi Mine for its ongoing initiatives. The Municipal Chief Executive for Obuasi, Faustilove Appiah Kannin, expressed satisfaction with AGA's contributions to education, healthcare, and sanitation.

Discussions have also been held with the company's Managing Director regarding the construction of a road linking Agyemang Gas to Nhyiaso. This road project is anticipated to enhance connectivity and bolster economic activities within the municipality. The inspection forms part of ongoing efforts by local authorities and stakeholders to monitor development interventions and determine priorities for improving infrastructure and public services in the two assemblies.
