Some residents of Appiatse near Bogoso in the Western Region, who have benefitted from the reconstruction housing scheme in the area, have started moving into their new homes.
This was after the Vice President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia officially inaugurated the first phase of the community’s reconstruction in May 2024.
Government promised to ensure the reconstruction of about 124 housing units that were destroyed in the community.
Subsequently, the government honoured its promise and constructed a befitting housing project for the resettlement of the victims.
In all, 124 new housing units, ranging from one bedroom to seven bedrooms were built with first class sanitary and other facilities.
The Assemblyman for Bepoh-Appiatse Electoral area, Thomas Yaw Enyam indicated that currently about 70% of those expected to move into the new apartments have done so.
“Yes it’s true. The beneficiaries started moving in about two weeks ago. The Municipal Chief Executive, Dr. Isaac Dasmani provided a vehicle to help convey the beneficiaries from their various lodging places to the new building,” he added.
He, therefore, appealed to the rest who are yet to benefit from the new housing units to be patient as plans were underway to ensure that all of them would be relocated smoothly.
