The Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) for the Aowin Municipality, Stephen Ntow Morcher, has assured residents that the long-awaited Enchi–Elubo Road project has finally commenced under the government’s Big Push Agenda. He expressed profound appreciation to his superior, the Western North Regional Minister, Wilbert Petty Brentum, for what he described as unwavering and resounding support toward the development of the municipality.
Speaking in an interview with The Daily Times, the MCE noted that the Regional Minister’s continuous backing has strengthened his resolve to deliver meaningful development to the people of Aowin. He said the confidence reposed in him by Hon. Brentum has translated into tangible benefits for the area.
According to him, out of the six major “Big Push” projects earmarked for the Western North Region, the Regional Minister ensured that Aowin Municipality secured two key projects. He described the allocation as a significant endorsement of his administration’s commitment to development.
Hon. Morcher stated that such support not only reflects trust in his leadership but also demonstrates the Minister’s dedication to the equitable distribution of development projects across the region. He stressed that the gesture has energized him to work even harder for the people.
“The support I receive keeps me going,” he emphasized, adding that collaboration at the regional level has been instrumental in attracting life-changing interventions to the municipality.
He further disclosed that the Yankama–Koodwour stretch is also in the pipeline and will be addressed under the ongoing infrastructure expansion plan. He assured residents that the necessary processes are being pursued to ensure that the road segment receives attention in due course.
The MCE gave residents further reassurance that more infrastructure development and social projects are planned across the municipality. He said the administration remains committed to improving roads, schools, healthcare facilities, and other critical infrastructure to enhance living conditions for all.
Hon. Morcher extended his appreciation to the Western North Regional Chairman, Mr. Big Aidoo, for his guidance and encouragement. He also conveyed gratitude to the President of the Republic, John Dramani Mahama, for his broader vision and commitment to national development.
He acknowledged the full support of the Assembly staff, commending them for their dedication and professionalism. He said their hard work and commitment to duty have significantly contributed to the municipality’s ability to attract and implement projects successfully.
He noted that continued unity, teamwork, and collaboration among political leaders, technocrats, and stakeholders remain the driving force behind the steady progress being recorded in Aowin. According to him, development thrives where there is cooperation.
Touching on rumours of a supposed misunderstanding between himself and the Member of Parliament for the area, the MCE dismissed the claims as baseless. He called bluff on reports suggesting any form of “beef,” insisting that there is no bad blood between them.
He concluded by affirming that he holds no grudges or personal agenda against anyone, stressing that his sole focus remains the development of Aowin Municipality. He assured residents that unity among leaders will continue to bring more projects, infrastructure, and opportunities to the area.
