President John Mahama has cut the sod for the construction of a modern 24-hour economy model market at Asesewa, in a move aimed at reviving the town’s status as a key commercial hub.
Addressing residents at the ceremony, the President acknowledged Asesewa’s historical role as a vibrant trading centre, but noted that years of infrastructure deficits had slowed its growth and reduced its economic influence.
“Historically, Asesewa has been a market town for many years, but over time, the infrastructure has not kept pace, affecting its growth,” he said.
The project forms part of a broader national initiative to construct 261 modern markets across district capitals, designed to boost local commerce, stimulate economic activity, and create sustainable jobs.
The 24-hour model market is expected to enhance trading opportunities, improve conditions for traders, and reposition Asesewa as a competitive commercial destination.
