The Appiatse Redevelopment Project in Ghana's Western Region has reached a significant milestone with the commencement of Phase Three. Nana Atta Kojo Brembi II, the Divisional Chief of Beppoh, has appealed to the government to include the construction of a chief's palace in this phase. The chief's palace was excluded from the previous phases of the project. The chief made this appeal during a ceremony where the Minister for Lands and Natural Resources, Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah, and other stakeholders cut the sod for Phase Three.
The Appiatse community was affected by a disaster, and the redevelopment project aims to restore security, dignity, belonging, privacy, and stability to the affected families.

He praised the government, the Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources, and other partners for their contributions to the project. The chief also commended the people of Appiatse for their patience and cooperation throughout the redevelopment process.
In addition to the chief's palace, Nana Brembi II requested the construction of a Junior High School (JHS) to complement the primary school already provided in the community. This will enhance the educational infrastructure in Appiatse. The chief also urged the government to expedite the payment of outstanding land compensation to affected community members. This will help alleviate the concerns of community members who have been impacted by the disaster.
The Appiatse Redevelopment Project has been a collaborative effort between the government, traditional authorities, and local implementation structures. The Prestea Huni-Valley Municipal Assembly and other partners have contributed to the project's progress. Nana Brembi II expressed confidence that the remaining aspects of the project would be completed, given the commitments previously made to the community.
