The government has directed Ghana Telecom to provide telephone services to all district capitals by the end of the year or lose its monopoly in the industry.
Mr George Boakye, Asunafo District Chief Executive, who announced this said other companies would be contracted to provide the service to the remaining district capitals that would not have been covered by the end of the deadline.
The DCE was speaking at the first ordinary meeting of the fourth session of the district assembly at Goaso.
He said the provision of telephone facilities to the district was dear to the hearts of the people and gave the assurance that the assembly would do everything possible to ensure that their dream was realised.
Mr Boakye thanked the assembly members for the 100 per cent endorsement they gave him at his nomination and expressed the hope that the spirit of unity would be sustained to enhance the smooth administration of the district.
