A further 25 percent has been earmarked for the government\u2019s 24-hour economy model markets, while 20 percent will support legacy projects. The remaining 5 percent will fund administrative activities.<\/p>\n<p>The DCE revealed that allocations for the 24-hour economy initiative and school furniture are currently on hold, pending final approval from the national headquarters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe 24-hour market project is expected to come with model market designs for districts to choose from,\u201d he said. \u201cWe were recently in Accra, where four design options were presented. The choice will depend on each district\u2019s financial capacity and expected revenue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Aka-Eri emphasized the importance of strong community involvement to ensure the smooth implementation of the outlined projects. He encouraged residents to remain engaged and supportive of the district\u2019s development agenda.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCommunity participation is crucial. We must work together to achieve the development goals of the district,\u201d he emphasized.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Source: Joseph Napoleon Anaaya\/expressnewsghana.com<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The District Chief Executive (DCE) for Bolgatanga East, Jacob Abugre Aka-Eri, has outlined the main priority areas for the district\u2019s share of the District Assemblies [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":22843,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22842","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-local-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
