He extended gratitude to the former President ,John Dramani Mahama and current government for making and  engineering the realization of Airport in the region

Togbe Afede called for the patronage of AWA flights, as they were a cheaper option, in cognisance of rising fuel prices.

“I will encourage all of us to take advantage of this, by not only those who go by passenger busses but also those who drive their own cars. I think that this is a more economical way of travelling to Accra, more efficient and more convenient,” he stated.
