THE NEW Patriotic Party (NPP) says it has extended the mandate of its executives to the six newly created regions.
President Akufo-Addo from Tuesday 12th February to Friday, 15th February, presented the Constitutional Instruments giving effects to the new regions at the Jubilee House in Accra. “Nalerigu has been chosen as the capital of the North East region” President Akufo-Addo has named Nalerigu as the capital town of the North East Region
While traditional leaders from newly-created regions pile pressure on the government to choose their preferred areas as capital, Myjoyonline.com is learning that naming the capitals is the least of the concerns of President Nana Akufo-Addo
An intense ‘fight’ has ensued over the siting of the regional capitals in the newly-created regions.
Six regions namely- Western North carved out of the Western Region, Ahafo and Bono East carved out of the Brong Ahafo Region, Oti carved out of the Volta Region, as well as the North-East and Savannah carved out of the Northern Region would come into existence by Friday, according to Regional Reorganisation and Development Minister, Dan Kwaku Botwe. Minister of Regional Re organisation and Development, Mr Dan Kwaku Botwe, has asked the chiefs and people of the various segments of the six new regions not to allow the selection of the regional capitals to take the shine out of the core objectives that were advanced for the creation of the regions.

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo will on February 12 issue a constitutional instrument to give effect to the six new regions.
An overwhelming ‘Yes’ vote on December 27, 2018, saw the creation of Ahafo, Bono East, North East, Oti, Savannah, and Western North Regions. The capitals of the six newly created regions will be known next Tuesday, February 12. On that day, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo will issue a Constitutional Instrument (CI) to give effect to the creation of the regions and the capitals.
The youth of Gambaga in the East Mamprusi Municipal in the Northern Region have reechoed their demands for the area to be made the capital of the newly created North East Region.
An intense ‘fight’ appears to be ensuing in the newly created regions over the siting of the regional capitals following the just-ended referendum which many have described as ‘successful.’
