SADA to establish permanent office in Volta Region

The Savannah Accelerated Development Authority (SADA) is to establish a permanent office in the Volta Region.

The infrastructure is to make the presence of the Authority felt in the beneficiary districts of the Region. 

The SADA Director of Programmes Dr Emmanuel Abere-Inga who was speaking on the sidelines of a media launch of SADA Business and Investment Forum (SABIF) 2015, in Tamale, said the UNDP funded office infrastructure will clear perceptions that the Volta Region had been shelved in SADA activities. 

He said the office will facilitate SADA programmes and offer opportunity to the local people to determine their needs and potential. 

Dr. Abere-Inga said already, the Region has benefited from a 500 hectare mango plantation at Kete-Krachi, constituting twenty five per cent of all SADA mango plantations.  

He said the Region has also received 57 tractors, representing nearly ten per cent as stated in the project disbursement framework.  

Dr. Abere-Inga said the Authority will soon construct a landing site in the Krachi area to open up the zone for rapid socio-economic development.
