Epowano, a coastal community and along the border between the Shama District and Komenda Edina Eguafo Abirem Municipality is without an engineered access road.
This had compelled the community to employ some traditional methods to construct a link road via Kafodzidzi a community in the KEEA, to the village.

For which reason, residents are compelled to journey through the KEEA to the district capital to access some social services and or make a complaint to the District Assembly at Shama.
After a visit by the Member of Parliament for Shama, Ato Panford, District Chief Executive, Joseph Amoah, and other officials of the district, to the community last week, a decision is about to fuse to get the road constructed.
“Access to Epowano is a very critical thing we need to rethink through. In fact if we have to leave Shama District and go through KEEA before you can access this township, I think its something that disconnects the people of Epowano from the Assembly. If we are able to do a very good survey we should be able to construct the road directly to connect from our district straight to Epowano”, Hon Panford elaborated.
Hon. Panford tells Skyy News, his office and that of the district assembly would mobilise funds to engineer a road that would connect the village to its mother district.
“I will be having engagement with the DCE. We will take this up and discuss it thoroughly at the general assembly level and make sure that we make provision for people at Epowano”, he added.
