Residents of Kotokuom in the Atwima Mponua District are celebrating the swift completion of the Kotokuom Bridge, a vital infrastructure project that was finished in just three months. The community has heaped praise on President John Dramani Mahama for addressing a long-standing issue that significantly impacted their daily lives and economic activities.
For years, the bridge, a crucial link between several farming communities, had been in a state of disrepair. Its dilapidated condition posed a serious hazard to commuters and created significant obstacles for the transportation of goods and services, particularly for local farmers struggling to get their produce to market.
The rapid construction and high quality of the newly completed bridge have garnered widespread commendation from residents. In a video shared on X by @eddie_wrt on June 24, 2025, a grateful resident expressed the community’s relief: “This bridge has been a major problem for us for years. We are very grateful to President Mahama and the roads minister for responding to our plight. This shows that the government listens.”
Community members have pledged their continued support for the government, viewing the project as a clear demonstration of responsive leadership and a commitment to rural development. The completion of the Kotokuom Bridge is expected to usher in significant improvements in transportation, stimulate local commerce, and enhance safety for all who use the route.
