She stated, "The responsibility of the assemblies is to identify what is unique and marketable in their districts, while the Ministry provides the technical expertise to package and promote those attractions both locally and internationally."
Madam Gomashie visited the Volta Region first after assuming office and met with the Volta Regional Minister, Mr James Gunu, and subsequently engaged all Municipal and District Chief Executives (MDCEs) to identify unique tourism attractions. Following a directive from President Mahama, she met with the Minister for Roads and Highways, Kwame Governs Agbodza, to discuss road rehabilitation to major tourist attractions. She expressed optimism that the second phase of the government's "Big Push" infrastructure programme would improve accessibility to tourism sites in the Volta Region, citing the Adaklu Mountain Range and the Likpe-Todome area as suitable for adventure tourism.
