Mahama orders establishment of Local Government TV platform for 261 MMDAs – Ayariga

He said the platform would provide citizens with greater access to proceedings and activities at the local government level, including discussions and decisions that directly affect their communities.

He said the proposed platform would also strengthen citizen participation in local governance by giving residents greater access to the work of Ghana’s 261 MMDAs.

President John Dramani Mahama has directed the Ministry of Local Government, Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs to establish a dedicated Local Government TV platform to bring the activities of Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies (MMDAs) closer to citizens.
