A private legal practitioner, Dr. Alexander Adusei Jr. has been appointed the Director for the Keta Port although the Volta Region town has no visible sign of a port. At a press briefing today the Keta MP called on the President to “reverse the horrendous decision of an appointment.”“This appointment is unnecessary and a rape of the resources of the GPHA and for that matter, the Ghanaian taxpayer.”“A seaport does not exist in Keta today for which a director is required. The proposed Keta Port is expected to be built around the Volta Lake in the town of Kedzi in the Keta municipality. The seaport would add to two existing one, Takoradi in the Western region and Tema in the Greater Accra region.
