The Alliance for Accountable Governance (AFAG), a pressure group, has said the President Mills' administration has failed to better the lots of Ghanaians especially those of the Western Region.

It therefore reiterated its commitment of staging a mass demonstration dubbed ”Wonkyendi” on Tuesday July 31 in Takoradi, to press for better conditions of life for the people in the region.

Addressing a press conference in Takoradi, Mr. Bright Acheampong, Deputy General Secretary of AFAG, said the Western Region is the most endowed in terms of natural resources yet, there is little development it could boast of.

He said instead of Professor Mills’ government prioritizing and implementing social protection systems for the most vulnerable, it is rather paying judgment debts to party cohorts.

Mr. Acheampong said some abandoned projects and social interventions in the region include the Tarkwa-Bogoso-Ayanfuri and Asankragwa-Enchi roads, halting of cocoa mass spraying exercise, high cost of fertilizers, high prices of fishing inputs and corruption in the management of the premix fuel among others.

He said although the previous administration under President Kuffour secured $350 million dollars from the American Exim Bank for Tarkwa-Bogoso-Ayanfuri road, after almost four years nothing concrete had been done on the road by the current NDC government.

He said the NPP government also secured a European Union grant of 73 million euros for the Asankragwa-Enchi road and yet the project had been abandoned.

The AFAG Deputy Secretary said the impending demonstration would help address these challenges to restore hope for the people in the region.**
