Coaltar Chief Cry to President Akuffo Addo Over Bad Roads.

Barima Okekrebesi Asiedu ll, the Chief of Coaltar in the Ayensuano District of the Eastern Region, has said they have had enough of pleasing on deplorable roads for years.


According to the chief, major road networks connecting to the capital of the District, Nsawam, Suhum, and Adeiso, have been in bad shape for many years. Our area is called Coaltar but for over 40 years now we haven't seen any Coaltar in their communities.


And because of that Chief Barima Okekrebesi Asiedu ll is calling on the government to intervene and do the needful to alleviate the people from their situation.

Speaking to Alrich24newsgh.com news reporter Apelete Kofi-Michel, in an installation of 5 Chiefs in the Coaltar Craboa area, the chief implored the new chiefs to support the development of his people and the Chiefs are Nana Yaa Asantewaa - Nkosohemaa, Kofi Owusu- Sanahene, Kofi Larbi- Osiahene and W.H. Arrington- Mawerehene


Barima Okekrebesi Asiedu Il, Coaltar chief explained that they often have to alight and walk the rest of their journey due to the nature of their poor roads.


He said some leaders don’t think of them, they only come to their mind when they need their votes and forget them after voting for them but said their road has been left unattended for so long and needs help from the Ayensuano District Assembly, he said.




He added that all the roads in Ayensuano District and the Coaltar Craboa area have become death traps and potholes the government must fix the roads now before its too late since the people in the area have suffered a lot in getting a better road to ply on. 


Ayensuano residents also added their voices to the situation which they said they are suffering due to the bad nature of their roads. Pregnant Women are dying, businesses are collapsing and no jobs in the area.


Car owners indicated that they spend more on fuel and car maintenance due to poor road networks.


However, the woes of the drivers have worsened during the rainy season and they complain of immediate intervention by the government.


Anytime drivers from Nsawam plys the road to Coaltar and are going back home with so many issues with their car due to bad roads. If it's not their tyre, it will be the shock absorber, they complain.


Barima Okekrebesi Asiedu ll is making a fervent call on the government and District Chief Executive to fix their roads for them before it is too late. He said.


Obaahemaa Afua Asiedua advised the new chiefs to comport themselves well and should show respect and show good leadership to the people of the Coaltar Craboa area. She said.
