Nadowli Kelo: DCE Breaks Ground for Gbankor Astroturf Construction

 

The District Chief Executive, Hon. Mary Haruna, has cut the sod for the construction of a multipurpose astroturf in Gbankor, a community in the Nadowli Kaleo District. This initiative aims to boost youth development and expand sporting facilities in the district.


The district currently has one astroturf located at the McCoy College of Education, constructed with funding from the Rt. Hon. Speaker Bagbin and Ghana Gas. This new facility will complement the existing one, providing more opportunities for sports development and social activities.


During the sod-cutting ceremony, Hon. Mary Haruna highlighted the benefits of the project, stating that it will provide a recreational space, attract businesses, and foster unity among the youth. She expressed gratitude to Brigadier-General Paul Seidu Tanye, a son of the community, for his role in bringing the project to fruition.


The DCE thanked the community elders for making land available and promised that the Assembly would support the contractor. The Assemblyman, speaking on behalf of the community, welcomed the project and assured the contractor of their cooperation.
