The Member of Parliament (MP), Hon. Joseph Kwasi Mensah, and the District Chief Executive (DCE), Hon. Effah Patrick, in Nkoranza North district, in the Bono East Region, have jointly cut the sod for the construction of a three-unit classroom block in two communities, Nipahiamoa (lower primary) and Domeabra (JHS), and a Community-based Health Planning and Services (CHPS) compound at Boana and Asekye.
These ceremonies typically involved community leaders, residents, education and health officials, and contractors, signifying the official start of the projects, which are intended to improve local infrastructure and services.
The three-unit classroom block will provide a better learning environment for students in Nipahiamoa whose school structure was highly deplorable, including a project at Domeabra JHS.
The CHPS compound, according to the DCE, Hon. Effah Patrick, will enhance healthcare accessibility for both Boana and Asekye, which uses a gari factory structure for healthcare delivery.
Both projects are part of the government’s commitment to improving education and healthcare infrastructure in the district, often in response to local needs and campaign promises.
The groundbreakings took place on Sunday, 9th November 2025, where the MP and the DCE handed over the construction sites to the contractors to commence work on the ambitious infrastructure projects, funded by the Assembly’s Common Fund, and to be completed in eight months.
At Nipahiamoa and Domeabra, the three-unit classroom blocks will be completed with stores, offices, dressing rooms, and water closet toilet facilities.
The DCE emphasized on Fabea FM with Apiah-Kubi that, the comprehensive nature of the projects in the district will significantly augment both the lower primary and JHS educational capacity.
Regarding healthcare, Hon. Effah Patrick added that the CHPS facilities will include nurses’ accommodations and will be equipped with all necessary facilities and equipment required for effective healthcare service delivery.
Both Boana and Asekye CHPS compounds are conversions of unused gari factories in the two communities.
“We have given the contractors eight months to complete the projects,” Hon. Effah Patrick stated.
The people of the four communities showed gratitude to the MP and the DCE for the kind gestures.
