The tour, which began on Thursday, April 11, 2025, is expected to end on April 26, 2025
Ralph Poku-Adusei, Member of Parliament for the Bekwai Constituency in the Ashanti Region, has embarked on a “Thank You Tour” across the constituency to express his appreciation to stakeholders and constituents for their overwhelming support in the 2024 general elections.
The tour, which began on Thursday, April 11, 2025, is expected to end on April 26, 2025.
Despite the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) defeat in the presidential election, Poku-Adusei emphasized the importance of acknowledging those who voted for him and helped retain the Bekwai seat for the NPP in Parliament.
The tour aims to strengthen ties with constituents, promote unity, and share updates on development efforts in the constituency.
As part of the tour, the MP has visited various religious institutions, including churches and mosques, and has paid courtesy calls on traditional authorities.
He has already met with the paramount chiefs of Essumeja, Kokofu, and Asamang, with upcoming visits scheduled to the Adankragya, Danyase, Amoaful, and Bekwai paramountcies.
He also visited traders at the Dominase Market to thank them for their support. Similar engagements are planned for other markets across the constituency.
To ensure broader engagement, Poku-Adusei has appeared on several media platforms, including Oyerepa TV and GHOne. He is scheduled to speak on Wontumi Radio and will conclude his media tour with an interview on a local station within the constituency.
One of the key achievements highlighted during the tour is the Clean Bekwai Initiative, which led to the evacuation of three major refuse dumps in Poano, Adjamesu, and Kokofu. These sites had long posed health risks and environmental concerns for residents. Their removal marks a major milestone in improving sanitation and public health in the area.
Additionally, the MP launched the Water for Life Initiative, under which four mechanized boreholes have been constructed in water-deprived communities.
Approximately fifteen broken-down boreholes have also been repaired, significantly enhancing access to clean drinking water across the constituency.
According to the MP, these initiatives reflect his practical approach to addressing the everyday challenges faced by his constituents.
His role as Deputy Ranking Member on Parliament’s Sanitation Committee complements his efforts to prioritize sanitation, infrastructure, and improved living conditions in Bekwai.
Poku-Adusei has pledged to continue collaborating with local leaders and community members to fulfill his campaign promises and push for further development.
Constituents have welcomed his return to the grassroots, describing it as a sign of commitment to their well-being and a strengthened connection with the people.
