Municipal Chief Executive, Gloria Opoku Gyamfi
Madam Gloria Opoku Gyamfi, the Municipal Chief Executive (MCE), has pledged to reset the Municipal Assembly to create decent jobs for the youth, promote agro-businesses and food security, and consolidate peace and security in the Municipality.
She noted that she would engage all key stakeholders, both state and non-state actors, especially Nananom, religious leaders, security agencies, the media, assembly members, and opinion leaders, to realign the Wenchi Municipal Medium-Term Development Plan with the government’s development policies and programs.
“I will consistently engage all key stakeholders, state and non-state actors alike, particularly Nananom, religious leaders, security agencies, the media, assembly members, and opinion leaders, to reset the Wenchi Municipal Medium-Term Development Plan in line with the government’s development policies and programs. This will accelerate socio-economic development, create decent jobs for the youth, promote agro-businesses and food security, and consolidate peace and security in the Municipality,” she said.
Madam Gloria Opoku made this statement in her acceptance speech after the Assembly Members of Wenchi Municipal Assembly overwhelmingly endorsed her with 100 percent support in an election conducted by the Municipal Electoral Commission.
She expressed profound gratitude to the President of the Republic of Ghana, H.E. John Dramani Mahama, for the great honor bestowed upon her, and appreciation to the assembly members for their overwhelming confirmation.
The MCE also pledged to run an open, transparent, and accountable administration.
“I will run an all-inclusive, consultative, and responsive administration to enhance good governance and ensure sustainable, quality service delivery for the betterment of the lives of the good people of Wenchi Municipality,” she emphasised.
Bono Regional Minister, Joseph Addae Akwaboa, in his remarks, described the MCE as a determined individual who could work hard to promote the President’s development agenda of resetting Ghana.
He urged the Assembly and all stakeholders to support her in realizing the vision of bringing development to Wenchi.
Henry Ameworwor, the Assembly Member for Pramaso/Nkyeraa, was elected as the Presiding Member of the Assembly with 41 votes, representing 100 percent.
