The Omanhen of the Gomoa Assin Traditional Area and President of the Traditional Council, Obirifo Ahonako Ahor Ankobia II, has allocated 10 acres of land at Gomoa Buduatta for the construction of a court complex to serve residents of Gomoa East.
He explained that Gomoa East is gradually developing towards metropolitan status, but currently lacks its own court facility. As a result, residents are forced to travel to Winneba, Ofankor, and Ewutu Beraku to access justice.
To help address the challenge, the Omanhen said he personally acquired the land and made it available for government to develop a court complex for the area.
He noted that the project has become a major priority for residents, especially given the presence of key public institutions such as the district head office and polyclinic at Gomoa Potsin, the district police headquarters, and banking facilities at Gomoa Dominase.
Obirifo Ahonako Ahor Ankobia II appealed to the Central Regional Minister and President John Dramani Mahama to support the initiative to improve access to justice for the people of Gomoa East.
He expressed confidence that the President, whom he described as a listening leader, would respond positively to the request.
