This new transformer replaces a faulty one that had left the community without electricity for the past two years.

During a brief ceremony, Mr. Sedik reflected on the promise he made to the people of Achiase during the 2024 general elections. He stated, “I made a solemn promise to the people of Achiase that if they support President John Dramani Mahama, the presidential candidate of the NDC, and myself as the parliamentary candidate, we would ensure that a brand-new transformer was brought here to restore electricity supply. Today, that promise has seen the light of day.”

Since taking office less than four months ago, following his appointment by President Mahama, Mr. Sedik prioritized working with the Electricity Company of Ghana to fulfill this campaign pledge.

He also mentioned that discussions are ongoing with the Energy Ministry to secure an additional transformer for the people of Adiembra and to extend electricity supply to other communities in the district that are not yet connected to the national grid.

Receiving the transformer on behalf of the community, Tetteh Acheampong, the Assembly Member for the Achiase electoral area, expressed profound gratitude to the DCE for his swift action. “I believed you would deliver on your promise, but I never thought it would be this quick. This proves that we did not only vote for the ‘Resetting Agenda’ of the NDC government, but we also voted for development and good governance,” he remarked.

Mr. Abubakar Sedik was joined by Mr. Prince Oppong, the Presiding Member of the District Assembly, Williams Opoku Agyemang, the District Information Officer and others.
