The District Chief Executive (DCE), **Hon. Ernest Owusu Ntim**, on **Wednesday, 24th June 2026**, embarked on a community engagement exercise at **Adasawase**, reaffirming the Assembly’s commitment to inclusive governance and citizen participation in local development.
In accordance with the cherished customs and traditions of Ghana, Hon. Owusu Ntim began his visit by paying a courtesy call on the Chief and Elders of Adasawase. The visit was to officially inform the traditional authorities of his presence and seek their blessings before engaging the wider community, recognizing the vital role they play as custodians of the land and leaders of the people.
The main community engagement was subsequently held at the **Methodist Church premises**, where residents gathered to interact directly with the District Chief Executive and his delegation.
The DCE was accompanied by all Heads of Department of the District Assembly, representatives from various decentralized departments and government agencies, members of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) District Executive Committee, and representatives from the media. Their presence demonstrated a coordinated approach to addressing the development needs and concerns of the community.
During the interactive session, residents raised several issues affecting the development and well-being of the community. Key among the concerns were the increasing mining activities within the district and their impact on the environment and livelihoods, the abandoned market project intended to facilitate trading activities, the poor telecommunications network affecting communication and business operations, and the need to develop and promote the Tini Waterfalls as a tourism destination. Other community-specific concerns relating to infrastructure and social services were also discussed.
Responding to the concerns, Hon. Ernest Owusu Ntim assured the residents that the Assembly remains committed to working closely with all relevant stakeholders to address the identified challenges. He emphasized that community engagement is an essential component of participatory governance and provides the Assembly with first-hand information needed to prioritize development interventions.
The DCE further encouraged residents to continue collaborating with the Assembly and to actively participate in development initiatives aimed at improving the quality of life within the district. He reiterated the Assembly’s dedication to transparency, accountability, and responsive leadership in the delivery of public services.
