VIDEO: Inside view of renovated Presidential Lodge, Regional Minister’s Residence in Ashanti Region
Ashanti Regional Minister, Dr. Frank Amoakohene, has received praise on social media for renovating the Presidential Lodge and the Regional Minister’s residence near Lake Bosomtwe.
According to reports, the facility, as part of the Ashanti Regional Coordinating Council, had been left to deteriorate for eight years under the previous government.
Visuals of the facility, which went viral in 2024, showed a vast area of land with dry terrain caused by the harmattan season, and flowers withering heavily due to a lack of irrigation.
Parts of the exterior ceiling were also broken, and the building’s paint was peeling off.
Some of the windows and doors were damaged, while the furniture inside was covered in dust, with several pieces completely broken.
However, new visuals of the facility, shared by The Ashanti Nation on X, show a transformation from just a few months ago.
All the rooms in the facility have now been renovated, completed with new furniture, glass fittings, and other enhancements.
In the viral video, the Ashanti Regional Minister was seen guiding a group of dignitaries through the refurbished space.
