This, he said, called for transparency and prudent management of financial resources.

Speaking at an awards ceremony held to recognize hard working Regional Ministers and MMDCEs in Kumasi, he asked that they put the common good ahead of personal comfort and convenience.

The event was organized by Bombisco Multimedia Productions, a Berekum-based organization.

In all, five Ministers and 36 MMDCEs from across the nation were honoured with citations for strong leadership and helping to change the living conditions of the people.

He urged them to work together with passion to drive the government’s development agenda – to fight poverty and make things better for everybody.

His Brong-Ahafo counterpart, Mr. Eric Opoku, identified hard work, humility and service as critical elements for good local governance.

Mr. Isaac Asare, the Chief Executive Officer of Bombisco, said the goal was to motivate public office holders to give it their all to speed up the nation’s socio-economic progress.

He said there could not be any doubt that they would be inspired by the awards to sustain the good job they were doing.
