Staff of Okaikwei North Municipal Assembly are heaving a sigh of relief as they move into a new office complex in Achimota in the Greater Accra Region.
The relocation, Management of the Assembly noted would see all its operations transitioned from its old Tesano Office to the Achimota office.
Mr. Francis K. Mensah, the Municipal Coordinating Director in a statement issued in Accra on Wednesday July 31, 2024 stressed that the relocation marks another great milestone in the history of the Assembly.
“This strategic move marks an exciting new charter in the Assembly’s growth and development. The new office space would provide an ultra-modern environment for our staff to innovate and serve our clients more effectively” Mr. Mensah stressed.
The Okaikwei North Assembly Municipal Coordinating Director added: “The relocation will also enable us to: Enhance our operational efficiency; Improve clients experience and service delivery; Expand our team and capabilities as well as strengthen our presence in the Municipality”.
The statement quotes Honourable Boye Laryea, the Municipal Chief Executive as saying “The Okaikwei North Municipal Assembly is highly delighted to relocate and look forward to continuing to serve our clients with excellence from our new location”.
The Okaikwei North MCE thanked the Management and staff of the Assembly for their support indicating that “I also express my profound gratitude to my Municipal Coordinating Director, Mr. Francis K. Mensah, the Management and Staff of the Assembly for the support towards achieving this feat”.
Earlier in an address, Honourable Laryea told staff of the Assembly that the relocation was necessary to save the Assembly the cost of paying for the rented offices at Tesano.
This, he explained was taking a toll on the finances of the Assembly thus preventing it from channeling its resources to other developmental projects in the Municipality.
“It is not necessary for us to be staying there and be paying so much when we have this office here at Achimota; we just have to be smart and find a nice way of managing what we have…” Honourable Laryea stated.
