THE Regional Minister, Mr. Anthony Evans Amoah, has said that a total of 89 kilometres of roads,leading to cocoa communities in the Sehwi-Juaboso District of the region, would be constructed, and tarred by the close of this year.

Addressing a durbar of the chiefs and people of Essam, in the Juaboso District, the Regional Minister mentioned the Juaboso, Dadieso, Nkwanta Junction and Bonsukrom roads, as cocoa roads, which are to be tarred under the 2nd phase of the cocoa construction roads project.

The rest are Kwame-Bikrom, Adabokrom, Kum-Kwanso and Yaw-Matwa, all cocoa growing communities.

The Minister however announced that six communities would also be connected to the national grid, though he failed to mention the names of the communities.

On his part, Nana Ntaa Adu, Chief of Bonza and the Kwamuhene of the Sehwi Wiawso Traditional Area, appealed to the government to build a Teacher Training College in the Sehwi District, to square with other Districts, which could boast of Teacher Training colleges.
