Kete-Krachi (O/R), March 28, GNA – Some residents of the Krachi West Municipality in the Oti Region have expressed appreciation to President John Dramani Mahama for nominating Mr. Addo K. Prosper as the Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) for the area.

In line with the 1992 Constitution of Ghana, specifically Article 234, and the Local Governance Act, 2016 (Act 936), the President announced the nomination of some MMDCEs across the country on Wednesday and Mr. Addo K. Prosper, a teacher resident of Kete-Krachi, was among 19 individuals who aspired for the MCE position in Krachi West.

Speaking to the Ghana News Agency (GNA), Mr. Anyobode MacLean Kwesi, the Communication Director of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in Krachi West, expressed his gratitude to the President for what he described as a well-thought-out appointment.

“Addo Prosper is a fine gentleman, competent, capable, and visionary with the ability to manage and develop Krachi West if given the necessary support,” he stated.

He congratulated the nominee and urged the people of Krachi West to rally behind him. “Let us all support our new MCE with our strength, love, prayers, and suggestions for the development of Krachi West,” he added.

A resident, Mr. Tawli Daniel, also shared his optimism about the nominee’s capabilities. “Though I don’t know him personally, I have heard great things about him. He is said to be kind, just, and competent. I believe with the right support, he can lead the development of Krachi West,” he emphasized.

He also advised the nominee to remain humble and focused on addressing the needs of the municipality rather than being swayed by power.

Further engagement with residents by the GNA revealed that many people believe Mr. Addo K. Prosper is the right choice to lead Krachi West to greater heights.
