The Member of Parliament for Dome-Kwabenya, Elikplim Akurugu, has expressed delight over President John Dramani Mahama's pledge to begin the distribution and installation of streetlights across the Greater Accra Region, specifically in the Dome-Kwabenya Constituency, during his Thank You Tour at Dodowa on May 17, 2025.
The MP spoke at the event, where she was joined by the Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) for Ga East, Edmund Agboh, and other dignitaries, including chiefs, religious leaders, and assembly members from the Ga East Municipality.
Earlier that day, the MP and MCE had taken part in a program focused on the boy child, after which they proceeded to Dodowa for the President's tour.
In an interview on the sidelines of the event, Akurugu highlighted the severe lack of streetlights in her constituency, describing visibility in many parts of Dome-Kwabenya as dangerously poor. "Several roads in the constituency remain in complete darkness, and of the few streetlights installed, most are not working due to cable breaks and dead bulbs," she lamented.
