As part of various engagements with indigenes and the good people of Obuasi East District, the hardworking District Chief Executive, Hon. Faustina Amissah together with the District Co-ordinating director, Mr. Eric Aboagye and some members of staff within the Obuasi East District Assembly visited traders and market women at Tutuka market.
This exercise forms part of the annual engagements conducted by the Assembly, in their quest to bring good governance and timely relay of accurate information to the doorsteps of the people.
The District Chief Executive, seized the opportunity to re-emphasize on the Assembly’s decision not to increase various taxes paid by the market women and traders for the usage of the facility. In her own words, she said, “The Assembly has taken notice of some false information (increment of taxes) relayed by some people purported to scare our beloved market women and traders. I wish to state categorically without mincing words as the head of the Assembly that, there will be no such increments for this calendar year. Traders are admonished to calm down and not dwell in fear and panic. Again, there will be no increments. Thank you”
