Volta Regional Minister, Hon. James Gunu, has urged stakeholders in the region to unite and contribute to efforts aimed at accelerating the development of the Volta Region. He made the call during a meeting with Togbe Afrika, Honorary Consul of the Republic of Indonesia in Ghana. The Minister emphasized that the region's development requires collective efforts from individuals and groups across various sectors of society.
According to Mr. Gunu, the development of the Volta Region cannot be achieved by one person alone. He stressed that everyone, including chiefs, politicians, youth, and women, has a role to play in the region's development. The Minister cited the Agbogbomefia of the Asogli State, Togbe Afede XIV, as an example of a prominent individual contributing to the region's progress.

He encouraged residents to take advantage of available opportunities and resources, noting that even modest contributions could collectively make a significant difference in the region's development.
The Regional Minister emphasized that the development agenda must place the youth at its centre, as the future prospects of the region depend largely on the foundation being created today. He stressed that now is the best time to develop the Volta Region and that failure to act now may result in missed opportunities.
Mr. Gunu called for greater unity and collective responsibility, emphasizing that the development of the Volta Region should not be viewed as the responsibility of the Regional Minister alone.
