THE Hohoe Municipal Assembly has held its fourth general meeting at Hohoe with a call on the people in the Volta Region to refrain from negative tendencies that have the potential of retarding their development.
At the meeting, the assembly members viewed with displeasure certain pull-him-down attitudes of the people in the region which impacted negatively on their development.
The members described as unprogressive, acts of mudslinging on their leaders who are striving to bring development to the region.
They said a publication on the front page of the Daily Searchlight dated April 26, 2010 by some anonymous youth calling on the President to remove from office, Mr Joseph Amenowode, the Volta Regional Minister and Mr Victor Hermann Condobery, Hohoe Municipal Chief Executive, as a stab in their back.
The members said no one could dismiss the regional minister for non-performance, since within his 14 months of being in office, he had visited almost all the districts and honoured invitations on official duties.
According to them, Mr Amenowode was ensuring that all the roads in the region that had been neglected by past governments were tackled. They also said Mr Condobery was also on course.
The assembly members said the projects being undertaken in the municipality within the year that Mr Condobery had been in office were more than what had been done in several years. They, therefore, pledged their unflinching support for the two officials.
In his sessional address, Mr Condobery mentioned some of the projects the assembly had awarded on contract as the construction of a District Magistrate’s Court at Hohoe, a headmaster’s bungalow at Gbi Atabu and a three-unit classroom block each at Leklebi and Alavanyo Agoxoe.
He expressed concern about the falling standards of education in the area and called on the assembly to find a lasting solution to the problem.
