President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has reiterated the government\u2019s pledge to assist the victims of the Akosombo dam spillage.<\/p>\n

At the 67th Independence Day celebration in Koforidua, themed \u2018Our Democracy, Our Pride,\u2019 Akufo-Addo said GH\u00a280 million of the earmarked GH\u00a2220 million had been released by the government to aid the ongoing rehabilitation efforts in the communities affected by the spillage.<\/p>\n

\u201cGovernment will stop at nothing to restore normalcy to the lives and livelihoods of all affected persons,\u201d he emphasized.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, speaking on the 13th African Games which will be officially opened in Accra on Friday, 8th March, he noted that \u201cI am not promising a Ghana clean sweep of track and field events. That would be a miracle, but I am promising a happy and exciting month for all our visitors.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also urged Ghanaians to adhere to the principle of the rule of law to ensure that the country\u2019s economy thrived.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe cannot hope for economic prosperity without adhering to the rule of law. There are a few amongst us who equate the freedom that was proclaimed at the arrival of independence with the freedom to ignore the rules and regulations that should guide our lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAspirations for prosperity go hand-in-hand with the discipline necessary for the rule of law,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n\n
