Dear Bia West,
As I bid farewell to my role as District Chief Executive, a position I’ve been privileged to hold under the NPP government, I want to express my deepest gratitude to the NPP, Nananom, Staff and Assembly members of the Bia West District Assembly, the clergy, Muslim community, and each of you for the honor of serving our beloved district.
Your trust and support have meant the world to me, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to have made a positive impact on our community. Please know that my love and dedication for this district and its people will never waver. I will continue to serve and support you in my own way, just as I have always done, even before taking on the role of Chief Executive.
Thank you for being an integral part of my journey. I love and appreciate you all.
Sincerely,
Hon. Bernard Gyebi Blay
