Correspondence from Michael Oberteye, Eastern Region Some residents of Somanya in the Eastern Region have passed a satisfactory verdict on the overall performance of the government ahead of the 2024 polls.
In recent separate interviews in Somanya, respondents highlighted various interventions, including the free SHS policy, the Agenda 111 projects, and road infrastructure across the country, as major success points of the Akufo-Addo government's eight-year tenure.
However, they pointed out that creating employment opportunities, ensuring a robust economy, and improving general infrastructure are areas the next government must prioritise.
Joseph Atama, a visually impaired pensioner, expressed his unwavering support for the NPP government, citing its educational policy and health sector interventions. "My assessment of the government is that because of the free education, hospitals…the Agenda 111 and a lot of things that the government has done, I think the government has done well and I'll vote for them," he said.
