“Why I Created A Zongo And Inner Cities Ministry” – Akufo-Addo

blankThe reactions and comments that follows the creation of this particular ministry is pathetically funny— whilst people were looking forward to the merging of most of the ministries, the president seem to be adding many to the fold.

People have beaten themselves to understand the reason behind this very one and the president has explanation for it. 

Speaking at a press conference at the Flagstaff House in Accra on Thursday afternoon, the president established that the Zongo community is one important area of concern that contribute to social togetherness, harmony and the over all development of a country hence the need for such a ministry to facilitate that bit.

The president added that he does not want such areas to be branded as areas of despair, areas of difficulty and areas of social conflict.

Adding that he found no other person he would head the ministry better than Mr Boniface Abubakar Saddique, who is currently the Member of Parliament for Madina in Accra.

Mr Saddique served as Northern Regional Minister in former President John Kufuor’s era, and President Akufo-Addo thinks “he is a darling of the Zongos and everybody knows that in Ghana.”

“He understands the communities in which he is going to be working,” the President said.
