He said they remained the key major areas that the Municipality was lacking that needed to be given attention to.
Mr. Hatto, who was recently elected by members of the Ketu South Assembly, gave the assurance on Monday, June 24 during an engagement with the media.
“As a house, we will work with the Agriculture Department to make good use of the government’s ‘Planting for Food and Job (PFJ)’ policy to make sure our farmers receive the necessary support to expand their yields and how to resolve post-harvest losses.”
Mr. Hatto, also a professional teacher, highlighted that good road networks, and issues regarding quality education, health, and others within the Municipality must be brought to bear. "Agbozume market, Aflao market, Denu, and other satellite markets are major revenue sources so we shall work on how to make them vibrant to increase the revenue generation for the Municipality"
