Techiman North District Assembly Surpasses Revenue Targets by 120% to Drive Infrastructure and Educational Growth

The Techiman North District Assembly (TNDA) has reported a significant fiscal milestone, surpassing its revenue collection targets for the second quarter of 2026 by over 120%. During the Second Ordinary Meeting held in Tuobodom, District Chief Executive (DCE) Johnson Kwabena Adom announced that the Assembly mobilized GH¢562,936.00 in Internally Generated Funds (IGF), significantly exceeding the budgeted target of GH¢468,612.60. This surge represents a substantial increase from the GH¢349,484.00 collected during the same period last year, signaling robust fiscal discipline and improved revenue collection strategies within the district.

According to the DCE, the impressive revenue performance is the result of strategic reforms, including tighter financial management, enhanced monitoring of revenue streams, and improved compliance from local ratepayers. Beyond the IGF success, the Assembly has also utilized its share of the District Assemblies Common Fund (DACF), which amounted to GH¢3,833,984.13. These resources are being aggressively funneled into critical development sectors, with a major focus on educational infrastructure. Ongoing projects include the distribution of dual desks to schools and the construction of several new classroom blocks to improve the learning environment for students across the district.

In addition to education, the Assembly is prioritizing the expansion of essential services and market connectivity. Efforts to provide potable water through the drilling of solar-powered boreholes are currently underway in several communities. Complementing the Assembly's efforts, the Member of Parliament for Techiman North, Elizabeth Ofosu-Adjare, has emphasized the urgent need for road rehabilitation to support the local economy. She noted that fixing dilapidated roads is essential for farmers and traders to transport produce to markets efficiently. The MP confirmed that feasibility studies for key routes have been completed and pledged her continued support for comprehensive community development initiatives.

The collaborative efforts between the District Assembly and the parliamentary office suggest a promising trajectory for Techiman North as it seeks to bridge infrastructure gaps. By minimizing revenue leakages and focusing on high-impact projects, the district is positioning itself as a model for local government efficiency. Residents remain optimistic that these ongoing developments in education, water access, and road networks will significantly enhance the overall quality of life and economic prospects for the constituency as the year progresses.
