The Ho Municipal Assembly is on the verge of a significant transformation with the nomination of Hon. Stephen Adom as the new Municipal Chief Executive (MCE).
In a recent interview on Ho Base Radio Swiss FM on Monday, March 31, 2025, Hon. Adom shared his vision for the assembly, emphasizing his action-oriented approach to governance.
This new leadership is expected to bring about positive changes in the municipality, and Hon. Adom’s key initiatives are already generating excitement.
One of Hon. Adom’s top priorities is the introduction of farming projects to feed the municipality, attract more internally generated Funds (IGF), and enhance youth employment.
By leveraging agriculture, the assembly hopes to stimulate economic growth and development, ultimately improving the local economy providing opportunities for the youth, and improving road networks in the Municipality.
Stating that transparency and accountability will be the hallmarks of his leadership, Hon. Adom suggested plans to establish small teams to investigate petitions and controversies within the assembly, ensuring that the concerns of the people are addressed.
Additionally, he has promised to provide regular reports to the municipality, including chiefs, within three months of taking office.
Hon. Adom also recognizes the importance of engaging with stakeholders to maintain order in vehicular movements and parking issues at the Ho main station and market areas. By working with stakeholders, the assembly hopes to find sustainable solutions to these challenges, ultimately improving the overall quality of life for residents and visitors alike.
In a bid to promote transparency, Hon. Adom has promised to make the assembly budget public before its implementation. This move is expected to increase accountability and ensure that the assembly’s finances are managed efficiently. The budget will be made accessible to the public, allowing residents to track how their taxes are being utilized.
Media engagement will also be a priority for Hon. Adom, who recognizes the importance of keeping the public informed about the assembly’s activities. By engaging with the media, Hon. Adom aims to foster a culture of openness and trust, promoting transparency and accountability.
Hon. Adom has also promised to visit all electoral areas to listen to the concerns and challenges faced by assembly members.
This move is expected to help him better understand the needs of the people and make informed decisions. By doing so, Hon. Adom aims to build a stronger connection with the community and ensure that their voices are heard.
With his nomination, Hon. Stephen Adom has signaled a new era for the Ho Municipal Assembly.
His commitment to transparency, accountability, and engagement with stakeholders is expected to bring about significant positive changes in the municipality. As he awaits approval from the Assembly Members, the people of Ho can expect a working assembly that prioritizes their needs and concerns.
President John Dramani Mahama’s nomination of Hon. Stephen Adom as the new MCE has been met with widespread confidence that he can deliver and move Ho forward. Hon. Adom’s experience and deep knowledge of local government make him an ideal candidate for the role.
As Hon. Adom prepares to take office, he has acknowledged the collaborative effort of the Assembly members and has expressed his commitment to making Ho great. He has also advocated for the use of the Ewe language in the Assembly, promoting cultural heritage and facilitating communication among community members.
