Ada positions itself for more tourists

The clean-up exercise started from Ada-Foah Clinic through the Education Office at Fiagbedu Clinic Junction. It ended with fun games and refreshments at the Dove Park, Ada-Foah.  

Organisers of the ‘Clean-Up Ada’ campaign said they were motivated to undertake the exercise to give a facelift to the community which is  known as a tourist destination.

“Participation was encouraging and we are happy with the outcome. We hope to undertake more of such activities,” Catherine Dela, one of the organisers said.

A major concern of the community is the poor nature of roads in the community.

“This is a drawback on the development of the community. We intend to petition the Member of Parliament for Ada, Comfort Doyoe, as well as the District Assembly to get the roads fixed. We are definitely worried about the state of the infrastructure leading up to the tourist facilities in the town.,” said Gideon Aguh, a resident.

The road from Kasseh to Big-Ada through to Ada-Foah is in a deplorable state and unmotorable  whenever it rains.  This negatively  affects tourism revenue and commercial activities in the area.
