Inspired by the visit of the Vice President to Agbobloshie and the NPP’s promise to provide shelter for Head Porters and Traders, Zachariah Cobbina, a businessman who owns Zaakmus Enterprise has built an ultra-modern state-of-the-art shelter for the Agbobloshie community.
The completed project, which is estimated to have cost about Ghc500,000.00 has over sixty (60) bed facility, 50 unit toilet, bath and urinal facilities, dressing rooms, changing rooms and other facilities for user comfort.
Zachariah on his part was grateful to the President and Major Oduro for their part in ending the land guard issue that resulted in him getting access to his land at Kasoa.
Deputy Defense Minister and Member of Parliament for the Nkoranza North constituency, Major Derrick Oduro, was there to support the tape-cutting ceremony for the project.
He asserted that the government of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) would construct a 600-bed residential facility for head Porters (popularly called Kayayos) in 2020.
According to the deputy minister, those plans are far advanced for the commencement of the project, in fulfillment of the ruling government’s promises to the people of Ghana.
He indicated that the provision of such a facility is very core to tackling the issue of sanitation.
