The Keta Investment Promotion Centre (KIPC) has refuted recent claims by the Minister of Finance regarding improvements in water supply in Keta.
In a statement issued in response to the mid-year policy review of the 2024 budget, Enyonam Adzo Apetorgbor, CEO of the Keta Investment Promotion Centre, emphasised that the assertion of enhanced water supply is far from the reality faced by many communities in the region.
“We wish to categorically deny this assertion and highlight the ongoing challenges faced by many communities in our region,” Ms. Apetorgbor stated.
She detailed that areas such as Hagodzi, Sonugb, Anyako, and Mamime continue to struggle with accessing potable water, leaving residents to endure daily hardships in securing clean and reliable sources.
“Contrary to the Minister's statement, the residents of these communities face significant difficulties in securing clean and reliable water sources, severely impacting their quality of life and health," Ms. Apetorgbor explained.
The press statement also brought to light other critical issues, such as unreliable electricity supply in these areas.
“Access to electricity remains a significant issue. The lack of reliable electricity supply hinders economic activities, education, and overall development,” Ms. Apetorgbor explained.
The Keta Investment Promotion Centre is urging relevant authorities to address these pressing issues with immediate action.
“It is crucial that concrete steps are taken to improve water supply and electricity access in Hagodzi, Anyako, Mamime, and other affected areas,” Ms. Apetorgbor emphasised.
She also called for greater government engagement with local leaders and residents to better understand and address these challenges.
“It is only through collaborative efforts that we can achieve meaningful and lasting improvements in our essential services,” Ms Apetorgbor added.
