The Vice Chairman of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) in Akatsi South, Anthony Solo Adotevi, has lauded President John Dramani Mahama for what he describes as a bold and people-centred development vision aimed at accelerating growth in the Volta Region.

Reacting to President Mahama’s directive to upgrade Ho and Hohoe to Metropolitan status, the party's local financier, Adotevi, said the move clearly demonstrates the government’s renewed focus on addressing the developmental needs of the party's world bank.

In a message shared with party supporters, the NDC stalwart praised the President’s leadership, noting that the proposed elevation of the two municipalities goes beyond administrative restructuring and opens the door to enhanced infrastructure development, increased resource allocation, and job creation.



“I can see the NDC now focusing on Volta to bring the needed development to our people. God bless JM,” Adotevi stated.

According to him, the decision affirms the strong bond between the NDC leadership and its grassroots support base in the Volta Region, adding that the party has once again shown its readiness to respond to the aspirations of its loyal supporters.

Adotevi, a philanthropist and key grassroots mobiliser in Akatsi South, noted that the urbanisation agenda aligns with the broader objectives of the NDC’s governance philosophy, which prioritises inclusive development and decentralisation.

He stressed that the elevation of Ho and Hohoe to metropolitan status will position the region to attract greater investment, improve public service delivery, and create economic opportunities for the youth.



Speaking to Awake News, the business mogul cum politician emphasised that with initiatives such as the proposed 24-hour economy and major infrastructure investments, the NDC is positioning itself to deliver sustainable development and improved livelihoods for Ghanaians.
