According to President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, his country is committed to achieving Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) No. 6, which calls on all signatory nations to provide universal access to water and sanitation.
In Adaklu, in the Volta Region, he made this statement during the commissioning of phase three of the five districts water project.
Almost 89,000 people from the Adaklu, Agotime-Ziope, and Central Tongu districts can get potable water thanks to the initiative.
The absence of potable water in rural Ghana, according to President Akufo-Addo, will be a thing of the past.
“Regarding SDG 6 with demands that we provide clean water and sanitation for all, the Akufo-Addo government has made significant improvement towards this objective.”
“You may recall at a ceremony in the Ho West District on the same day I cut the sod for the commencement of five districts’ water project, I commissioned completed projects under the water supply improvements project of the Ghana Spain Debt Swap Development Programme implemented by the Community of Water Sanitation Agency (CWSA) at a total cost of $3.7 million,” he stated.
