The commissioning of the new office complex has brought significant relief to both staff and residents of the Jomoro Municipality, marking an important milestone in the Assembly’s efforts to improve administrative efficiency and service delivery.
The office complex, which had been partially completed and abandoned for over seven years, remained unused despite several attempts to engage the original contractor. These efforts proved futile, as the project was initially awarded by the central government, leaving the Assembly with limited control over its completion.
Determined to prevent the waste of state resources, the Municipal Chief Executive, Hon. Louisa Iris Arde, took a bold and strategic decision to complete the facility for immediate use. The completion of the complex is intended to create adequate office space for departments currently operating outside the Assembly, thereby promoting closer collaboration and a stronger sense of unity among staff working towards a common goal. Additionally, offices previously occupied by staff within the township will be converted into residential accommodation to address staff housing challenges.
The office complex was officially commissioned today by the leadership of the Local Council of Churches, following a joint morning devotion with the management and staff of the Assembly. During the ceremony, prayers were offered to commit the staff and people of Jomoro into God’s hands for a successful and productive 2023.
Hon. Louisa Iris Arde expressed her profound appreciation to the Local Council of Churches for their spiritual support and prayers, and reaffirmed her commitment to initiatives that enhance efficiency, unity and development within the municipality.
