Upper West Region to Host President Mahama for Saturday Citizen Engagement Initiative
In a renewed effort to revive Ghana's Citizen Engagement initiative, President John Dramani Mahama is scheduled to visit Wa, the regional capital of the Upper West Region, on Saturday, 12th September 2026. This high-profile visit is part of the President’s commitment to strengthening the bond between the government and citizens in the region.
At 11:30 a.m., President Mahama will meet with key stakeholders and residents at the Auditorium of the University of Business and Integrated Development Studies (UBIDS). This engagement will offer a valuable platform for the people of the Upper West Region to interact directly with the President, voice their concerns, and discuss pressing regional issues.
The visit marks a significant milestone for the Upper West Region, known for its rich human resources, vibrant agricultural sector, and cultural heritage. Through this interaction, President Mahama aims to gain a deeper understanding of the region’s challenges and mobilize the collective strength of its people to accelerate growth and development.
This engagement also seeks to inject fresh momentum into the Citizen Engagement initiative, which has experienced a period of dormancy. As one of Ghana’s most underserved regions, the Upper West stands to benefit greatly from this renewed focus, with the President’s visit seen as a critical boost to its socio-economic progress.
While the tangible outcomes of this important engagement remain to be seen, the people of the Upper West Region eagerly anticipate the opportunity to be heard and to contribute to shaping their future.
