Mahama advances 24-hour economy vision with ground-breaking market at Asesewa
John Dramani Mahama cut sod on Friday at Asesewa for the construction of a state-of-the-art 24-hour economy model market. The project is expected to restore the town's historic prominence as one of Ghana's vibrant commercial centres.
The Asesewa market project is part of a nationwide initiative to construct 261 ultramodern district-level markets across the country. The facility will include 100 lockable stores and 150 open trading stalls, 36 modern washrooms, an on-site police post and fire station, a daycare center, an on-site pharmacy and health clinic, a dedicated Women's Bank, 10 warehouses, a meat processing and sales shop, two cold stores, and a restaurant with food courts. President Mahama stated, "Historically, Asesewa has been a market town for many years, but over time, the infrastructure has not kept pace, affecting its growth." He also emphasized, "This initiative is about more than building markets. It is about building opportunity, creating jobs, and transforming local economies into centres of productivity and prosperity."
