Assin Nyankomasi (C/R) Sept 15, GNA – The
Assin Fosu Municipal Assembly has inaugurated a 13.5 acre land for the Assin
Fosu Garages Association (AFGA) and other skilled workers at Assin Nyankomasi.

The land has a 16-seater toilet facility, a
reserved portion for scrap dealers and construction of stores.

Mr. Nicholas Fiifi Baako, Assin Fosu
Municipal Chief Executive said artisans in the municipality were hitherto,
operating from warehouses and other unauthorised places and needed an Artisan
Village to ease them of the difficulties they go through on daily basis.

He said bringing welders, electrician,
sprayers, and vulgarizers among other artisans together at one place, would
make it easier for drivers and car owners to enjoy the best of services.

Throwing more light on the economic benefits
of the Artisan Village, he said it would be easier for the Municipal Assembly
in revenue mobilisation for the development of the Area.

Mr. Baako advised the youth of Assin to
embrace the numerous opportunities of the policies of government for the
betterment of their lives and stop the “get-rich quick” ways of making money.

With smiles on their faces, the obviously
elated artisans who acquired the land praised the Chiefs of Assin Nyankomasi
for the land as well as the Municipal Assembly for their relentless efforts to
bring their vision into a reality.

Nana Amoh the chairman of AFGA who spoke on
behalf of the Association promised that it would work assiduously and pay taxes
to facilitate the development of the Municipality.

Nana Kwaku Apotai II, the Chief of Assin
Nyankomasi said the establishment of the Artisan Village in the Town would help
boost economic activities and ensure the growth of the Area and pledged a
peaceful coexistence between the entire community and the Association.
