Dela Sowah, the Assemblyman and the wonderful team who worked on the ground with our contractors to give these projects a very quick turnaround time. Bi-partisan leadership can bring development within a very short time in a cost-effective manner for the development of local communities. And for that, I want to say thank you very much,” Mr Koku Avle said.

So when we heard of what happened in this area, we couldn’t just look on. We decided to step in. We wanted to reach out and say we can be there for you, we want to contribute something to show our love, and so that is what led to the resettlement centre. We are happy with what we are seeing, Citi FM/Citi TV staff and management, thank you so much. It’s been a great collaboration.”
