Regional News of Tuesday, 10 March 2026Source: www.ghanaweb.comResidents and drivers in Akyem Aduasa, a cocoa-farming community in the Birim South District of the Eastern Region, have accused their Member of Parliament, Kennedy Osei Nyarko, failing to lobby for the repairs of their deteriorating road network. They argued that although Akyem Aduasa is a major contributor to Ghana’s cocoa production, the community remains trapped in a cycle of dust and mud. Our MP is in his fourth term, yet he hasn’t been able to lobby for this road to be fixed,” one driver lamented. It took the timely intervention of the Chief of Akyem Aduasa, Osabarima Abrokwa Gyampem VI, to calm the situation and persuade drivers to rescind the decision for the sake of residents. The Ministry operates through three key agencies, the Ghana Highway Authority (trunk roads), the Department of Feeder Roads (rural roads) and the Department of Urban Roads (city roads).
