Rev. Simms Kwame Appiah-Kubi, the National Deputy Director of Operations and President of the Ashanti Regional Chapter of the Developmental Journalists Association (D.J.A.), a non-partisan group of Journalists in Ghana, has called on Ghanaians to support the Association’s aim of fighting against the abandoning of government projects by the past and current governments of Ghana.
Speaking at the Launching of the Developmental Journalists Association in Kumasi on Saturday, Rev. Appiah-Kubi said, it is very disheartening to see government projects being abandoned by the government after spending millions of taxpayers’ money.
He advised the citizens to inform the Association about any uncompleted or abandoned projects to the D.J.A. to enable them to mount pressure on the government as it did in 2023 when the government abandoned some Eastern Region Tourist attraction centers.
He said, after pressuring the government, they quickly went to revive some of them which is now fetching the state with millions of money every month.
He called on all the Media practitioners in the country to join the Developmental Journalists Association so that together we can all eliminate that canker of abandoning projects anyhow.
On his part, an executive member of the Association, Mr. Daniel Mbabugri Akgri of Agyenkwa FM also the CEO of Damak Sanitation Health Watch and Damak Media made a passionate appeal to the citizens to give out their support when DJA members visit their Community for news.
The Ashanti Regional Secretary of the Developmental Journalists Association Mr. Debrah Michael also known as Obofuor also appealed to our political leaders to see to it that peace prevails before, during, and after the 2024 elections.
