Municipal Chief Executive of Ashaiman, Mr. Freeman Tsekpo, embarked on a pivotal working visit to the Ghana Immigration Service (GIS) Division in Ashaiman Municipality on July 10, 2025. The visit, set against the bustling backdrop of Ashaiman\u2019s evolving landscape, was more than a courtesy call\u2014it was a clarion call for unity and action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mr. Tsekpo, with characteristic resolve, sought to fortify the bonds between the Assembly and the Ashaiman GIS officers. He painted a vision of transformation for Ashaiman, one where collaboration would serve as the engine for progress. Addressing the officers, he urged them to join hands with the Assembly on pressing priorities, the relentless pursuit of robust revenue mobilization, and the elevation of sanitation standards across the Municipality. His words were not merely aspirational; they were anchored in recognition, as he lauded the GIS for their remarkable achievement in erecting a storey building complex at Jericho\u2014a testament to their commitment and resourcefulness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The air of determination was matched by the candor of Sector Commander DCO Abdul-Rashid Awal. Taking the floor, he reaffirmed the GIS\u2019s unyielding dedication to upholding immigration laws and lending steadfast support to fellow security agencies. Commander Awal did not shy away from the shadows that linger over Ashaiman, spotlighting the growing concerns of foreigners overstaying their permits, the specter of illicit activities unfolding in local hotels, and the unsettling surge in prostitution and scams. Yet, his message was one of resolve, pledging the Division\u2019s unwavering support to the Assembly\u2019s developmental agenda\u2014an assurance that the GIS stands ready to be both shield and spear in the fight for Ashaiman\u2019s future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The visit was not without its moments of solemnity. In a gesture that spoke volumes, Mr. Tsekpo offered heartfelt condolences to the officers over the loss of a cherished colleague. His words, gentle yet firm, called for vigilance, discipline, and a renewed devotion to safeguarding the community\u2014a reminder that the pursuit of safety and progress is as much about spirit as it is about strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As Ashaiman stands at the crossroads of challenge and change, the partnership between its leaders and protectors promises to chart a course toward a safer, cleaner, and more vibrant future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1440\"
