The Mayor of Accra, Hon. Michael Kpakpo Allotey, has joined Metropolitan, Municipal, and District Chief Executives (MMDCEs) from across the country for a three-day orientation and training programme aimed at enhancing leadership, governance, and policy implementation at the local level.
The programme, which opened on Wednesday at the Institute of Local Government Studies and aimed at knowledge sharing, policy alignment, and capacity development, is being organised by the Ministry of Local Government, Chieftaincy, and Religious Affairs in collaboration with the Office of the President.
Speaking to journalists on the sidelines of the event, Mayor Allotey described the training as “timely and crucial,” especially as many assemblies were gearing up to implement renewed mandates and flagship initiatives.
“This orientation is a strategic opportunity to harmonise our roles as Chief Executives of our local areas with the national development agenda,” he stated.
