The delegation also formally presented a sealed letter from His Majesty the Fon of Kedjom Ketinguh to the Minister.
While the contents of the letter were not disclosed, it is understood that it addressed the community’s road infrastructure priorities and reinforced the appeal for Government intervention. Hon.
