  During the period under review, we noted that 10 vehicles belonging to  Assin South District Assembly have been abandoned for periods ranging  between one year and 14 years due to varying reasons. The vehicles were made
up of four pickups, two tractors, one nissan patrol, one ford everest, one farm
track and a grader.

 We attributed the lapse to laxity and negligence on the part of  management to safeguard government properties under their care.

The continuous neglect of the vehicles could lead to further deterioration
and loss of their net realizable values.

 The auditor general therefore recommended that immediate steps should be taken to salvage the  vehicles and put them to use.


Stay tuned and watch out for your Assembly

  AFTER YEARS OF MINING IN AKWATIA – GHANA’S NEW ARTIFICIAL LAKE, THE ASUBONE STORY AND OUR TOURISM DRIVE  ABSTRACT.... H. BRAKO Diamonds were first discovered in the Gold Coast Colony (Ghana) near the Birim River close to the town of Abomosu in 1919. The Birim diamond discoveries led mining companies to invest along that river. However, not until 1929 did organized diamond mining begin following additional diamond discoveries made by Ghanaian prospectors in the gravels of Bediebewu streams near Tarkwa.
