NALAG President throws down the challenge: Deliver development or lose public trust

President of the National Association of Local Authorities of Ghana (NALAG), Alfred Asiedu Adjei, has issued a stern warning to Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies (MMDAs), saying local government officials risk losing public confidence if they fail to deliver visible development and accountable leadership.

According to him, every Assembly committee must function efficiently, every decision must reflect fairness and the public interest, and every resolution must produce measurable benefits for local communities.

He said strengthening the capacity and welfare of local government officials was essential to building institutions capable of delivering effective governance.
