The Member of Parliament (MP) for Ellembelle, Mr.Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah has inspected work on a-47-kilometer cocoa growing road linking the Northern part of the district popularly referred to as Aiyinasi-North.

The completed project, now affords the predominantly cocoa farmers in the area, the opportunity to cart their cocoa produce easily to Nkroful, the district capital, through to Takoradi.

Hitherto, produce from their cocoa farms was transported from Asomase to Kwesikrom, then to Prestea Huni Valley to Tarkwa before reaching Ellembelle district.

He assured the people of the area that government will continue providing amenities and infrastructural development to improve their living conditions.

Mr. Buah, who doubles as the Deputy Minister for Energy, asked the people to retain the NDC in power in the December 07 general elections to lend more credence to its Better Ghana Agenda and used the occasion to explain government policies to them.

The District Chief Executive (DCE) for Ellembelle, Mr. Daniel K. Eshun said cocoa formed a greater percentage of the district Assembly’s revenue and was happy that the cocoa growing areas are now motorable to ease the transportation burden on farmers.
