The Ashanti Regional Minister, Dr. Frank Amoakohene, has assured the Ghana Journalists Association (GJA) in the Ashanti Region of his commitment to constructing a modern and well-equipped press center.
His pledge comes as a major boost for the region’s media practitioners, who have long awaited a dedicated facility to support their work.
Speaking at the 2025 GJA Thanksgiving Service and Get-Together ceremony held in Kumasi, Dr. Amoakohene emphasized his personal dedication to ensuring the successful completion of the project.
“I will personally ensure the construction of a modern and befitting press center for the Ashanti Region,” he declared.
Further demonstrating his commitment, Dr. Amoakohene revealed his plans to meet with Hon. Eric Opoku to study his approach to similar projects and leverage that strategy to accomplish the task at hand.
“I will be in Accra next week ahead of the budget reading and will take the opportunity to meet Hon. Eric Opoku to discuss the project. I need to study the strategy he used so that we can get the job done for the media,” he stated.
