As the official commissioning and handover of the reconstructed Appiatse community approaches on Thursday (May 2, 2024), the list of contributors to the project has been disclosed.

The list comprises 79 donors from various sectors including politicians, corporate entities, religious institutions, and individuals.

Appiatse, a farming community situated between Bogoso and Bawdie in the Prestea Huni-Valley Municipality of the Western Region, witnessed the completion of housing units after enduring a tragic incident over two years ago.

Following an explosion that devastated the entire settlement, claiming lives and causing widespread destruction of property and livelihoods, the reconstruction initiative was launched.

The government promptly initiated the rebuilding process post the unfortunate incident, resulting in the completion of 124 housing units along with supplementary amenities for the affected individuals.

These newly constructed structures, ranging from one-bedroom to seven-bedroom units, feature enhanced facilities such as a market, six-unit classroom and kindergarten blocks, internal road networks, access to water and electricity, a drainage system, and water storage provisions.

The upcoming inauguration of these buildings by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo signifies the commencement of the first phase of the reconstruction project, paving the way for the subsequent phases to follow.

Background:

In January 2022, a tragic incident unfolded when a vehicle transporting approximately 10 tonnes of mining explosives to the Chirano Mines collided with a motorcycle, resulting in the detonation of the explosives that obliterated the entire community.

The ensuing inferno engulfed hundreds of residential and commercial buildings, leaving many residents and travelers trapped in the chaos.

An endowment fund, chaired by Rev Dr Joyce Aryee was established to help raise funds for the reconstruction of the Appiatse community.

The other four members of the committee for the fund are the Managing Director of Cal Bank, Mr Philip Owiredu; the Chief Executive officer (CEO) of the Ghana Chamber of Mines, Mr Sulemanu Kone; the Paramount Chief of the Wassa Amenfi Traditional Area, Tetrete Okuamoah Sekyim II; and a Social Development Research fellow at the Centre for Social Policy Studies at the University of Ghana, Dr Antoinette Adjoa Tsiboe-Darko.
