In a slum or an orderly arranged neighborhood? Are you proud to tell people where you happen to rest after a long day of stress or do you belong to the growing number of people who find the closest cool neighborhood to rep as your own? There may be many legitimate reasons to justify your answers to these questions and of course, first impressions last and where you live plays a pivotal role so we
tend to understand even before you speak. AshaimanToday is a program designed to narrate the untold success stories of Ashaiman beyond the preconceived ideas of the past. Within many of our cities are established institutions, celebrated personalities and a growing educated youth who can turn the ship in the right direction and lead the change for a clean, organized, secure community but have we done enough? Can our communities be proud of us like how we pride ourselves with the closest by ours? Will we be willing to allow our children to live and work in these communities? This and many answered questions will be addressed through this program. The story of the new Ashaiman will depend on you as a catalyst of change from down to up as we put our leaders on the spot for change from top to down. May your choice of association with where you live reflects the hope of a new city and not the fear of stigmatization for being true to where you live. Ashaiman has come afar. We had moved from selling iced water in rubber buckets, sitting face to face in Datsun cars to Tema harbor to buy fish. Truck pushing has also been taken over by motorbikes and tricycles. There has also been a fair representation of banks and other financial institutions in town. The main market has seen some expansion, the Cluster of schools walls have also been repaired and extended to avoid the rampant jumping by miscreants. All these are testimonies of how calm and transformed the town has become. Administratively, we have a Municipal Assembly administering the town, unlike the days when people had to trek to the Tema Municipal Assembly in Tema for related businesses. Truly, Ashaiman has changed for good and I am proud to have gone through all these changes. Wherever you are, from Tulaku, market Square, Fitter line, Taboo line, Tsinai Agbe, Zongo Laka, Roman, Night Market, Asensu Bar, Official Town, Taifa, Middle East, Barrier, Afariwaa, Christian Village, Newtown, Valco Flat, Mali Estate, Jericho, Lebanon Zones 2-5, Zenu, Atadeka, New York, Washington, Kubekro, Israel, Newland, Auntie Alaba, Appolonia, Japan City or a settlement yet to be named, this town has seen some great times and I am proud to be in Ashaiman.
