Introduction

1.1 Background

In compliance with statutory requirements for monitoring and evaluation, mechanisms are put in place to measure progress of planned programmes and projects undertaken by the district, the Bosome Freho District Assembly on an annual basis prepare a District Annual Progress Report.

The Annual Progress Report for January-December 2017 was prepared within the context of programmes and projects, which are in line with the seven thematic areas of the Medium Term Development Plan (MTDP) as follows:

Beside these, the Assemblies report on Disbursement from major funding sources, status of indicators and targets set and critical development and poverty issues which give indication to the level of welfare of the people and therefore serve as tools of evaluation for the various poverty reduction interventions put in place by central government and development partners at the grassroots level.

1.2 District Profile The Bosome Freho District Assembly was established by the legislative instrument

LI 1852 of 2007 with its capital at . The District was carved out of the former

Amansie East District.

It is drained by Pra, Fre, Sunso, Anum Rivers and the Lake Bosomtwe. The vegetation is a moist-semi-deciduous forest predominantly covered by chronolaena

Odorata (commonly called Acheampong) shrub. It also has forest reserves along the

Lake Bosomtwe Ranges and along the borders with Adansi South. The District is mainly under laid by three geological formations, the Birimian, Tarkwaian, and granitic rocks.

The District experiences tropical rains with double maxima recording a monthly average of 1600mm in June and 1800mm in October. Temperature ranges between

32C in March and 20C in August with Humidity moderately high during the rainy season. It ranges between 70% and 80% in the dry season.

5

Small scale gold mining is still gaining prominent due to the discovery of alluvial gold along the Anum and Pra rivers and their major tributaries.

Manufacturing is still virtually non-existent, except for some few individuals who engaged in gari processing and palm oil production. Part time cottage industrial activities such as weaving, basketry and petty trading activities are still common among women.

Lake Bosomtwe and the surrounding meteorite crater with its associated landforms remain a major tourist attraction in the District. There are two waterfalls in the

District namely Subrisu and Yapesa waterfalls. Efforts are being made to exploit their potentials to generate revenue for the Assembly and to create jobs.

The greater portion of the lands in the District falls under the Kokofu Traditional

Council, the only Paramountcy in the District, though the seat of the Paramountcy is located outside the District. Other parts of the District also belong to the Dadease

Stool which is Obrempong. Similarly the seat of the Obrempong stool is located outside the District.

Five (35) JHS, one (1) Senior High/Technical school and two (2) Vocational Schools.

Kokofu Paramountcy and Dadease Traditional Council which is an oberempon stool.

1.4 District Assembly and its Objectives

The Assembly is the highest political and administrative body in the District and therefore exercises deliberative, legislative and executive functions. It has the mission and responsibility to improve the quality of life of the people through sustainable development. To achieve this mission, the District has set itself certain objectives namely:

 To facilitate the effective functioning of the local government administration in the District.  To ensure efficiency and effectiveness in the use of resources of the District and the decentralized departments.  To monitor, co-ordinate and harmonize the implementation of development plans and activities in district.

7

 To facilitate the provision of basic social and economic infrastructure and services in the district.  To facilitate community based and private sector development in the district.

1.5 Purpose of the 2017 Annual Progress Report (APR) The purpose of the 2017 Annual progress Report was to assess and evaluate the performance of the Assembly, review and provide information on the impacts and achievements of the district based on the objectives set –out in the Medium Term Development Plan (2014-2017) in relation to the programmes and projects targeted for the year 2017.

This report therefore indicates the level of progress of development programmes and projects initiated both by the District and the Government. Also the core indicator levels were examined to access their performance. The report also accessed the medium term development plan 2014-2017 in its first year of operation. As part of the exercise, funding sources of revenue for project implementation were also reviewed to indicate the volume that was made available during the period and timeliness. Critical poverty interventions being implemented in the District were also reviewed to see their progress.

1.6 The key M&E objectives for the year

1.7 Processes Involved and Difficulties Encountered.

Beside the review of major programmes and projects of the District Assembly the Decentralised Departments also reported on their performance against set targets. Among the key departments which reported on their performance to the Assembly were Education, Health and Agriculture, Department of Community Development, Department of Social Welfare and the Business Advisory Centre.

Major challenges encountered during the process of compiling the report were as follows;

. Limited funding for the implementation of programmes and projects outlined in the District annual action plan. The District relied mostly on the District Assemblies

9

Common Fund and there was a huge deficit. The Internally Generated Fund (IGF) of the Assembly has been very low over the years of the Assembly’s operation.

. Excessive delay in the release of the District Assemblies Common Fund

. Inadequate logistical support for monitoring and evaluation of the Assembly activities

. Excessive delay in the release of the District Development Facility (DDF)

. Delay in the preparation and submission of reports by Departments of the District.

These are the Internally Generated Funds (IGF) and External Inflows

Sources of Internally Generated Funds for the Assembly are;

. Rates . Lands Revenue . Fees and Fines . Licenses . Rent . Investment income . Miscellaneous

2.3.1 The Sources of External Inflow included;

. District Assembly Common Fund . GOG Grants (GETFUND, MP’s Common Fund etc.) . Development Partners Grant (GSOP, DDF, Funding through NGO’s etc.)

During the year under review revenues accruing to the Bosome Freho District Assembly was as follows;

From the table above, it could be realized that, the Assembly could not achieve its target under any of the revenue source. Yet the performance under District Development Facility (DDF) was very encouraging. The funding proved to be the most reliable, receiving as much as 93% of expected revenue. This was followed by the DACF which could manage barely 40%. The District received a negligible 2% of expected revenue from Government of Ghana GoG source. This leaves much to be desired because government is expected to be the main contributor to investment funding under the decentralisation programme. After transferring responsibility the Assemblies it is expected that government should make resources available to fund investment on public infrastructure. The centre holding on to statutory transfers defeat the purpose of fiscal decentralisation which is a key element of making the districts functional.

The Assembly’s situation is worsened by low internally generated fund mobilisation, the District could manage only

2.3.2 Comments on the Releases of Funds The District Assembly Common Fund remains the singular major source of funds for investment to the District Assembly. The problem with this fund is the high statutory deductions made at source which at times are not planned at the District level. Also there has been shortfall in the District’s allocation in the fund in recent years which makes it impossible for the District to implement all its planed programmes and projects for the year. With the challenges aside, released for the year was encouraging, the Assembly received 3 quarters of the year in addition to the 4th quarter arrears for 2015. The introduction of the District Development Facility (DDF) has supplemented the common fund to finance investment activities in the District though the releases per year are not comparable in value to that of the common Fund. Yet it has been very reliable. The District’s Internally Generated Fund (IGF) sources were also limited which made it difficult to finance the Assembly’s recurrent expenditure solely from IGF sources.

The Assembly’s total expenditure for the quarter amounted to under a fifth of the budgeted expenditure for the year. This is mainly explained by restricted inflows to the Assembly from our major revenue sources. The low expenditure by the Assembly may translate in to non- performance of key functions and excessive delay on project implementation as payments may be long over-due and contractors may abandon site. This has resulted in increasing project cost due to delays in payment for work done which has given rise to frequent demand for upward review of contract sum. 2.3.3 Efforts to Generate More Revenue

28

The Assembly was not able to generate enough revenue to meet its recurrent expenditure let alone get additional funds for capital projects. Strategies adopted to improve collection of IGF would include the following:

. Widen the revenue base to bring in more revenue items which were not covered previously . Engage more commission revenue collectors to work in communities where there are no collectors . Continued and sustained tax education . Motivating hard-working collectors and supervisors . Improving the data base of the district, by enumeration of the rateable population and the preparation of valuation list of all properties? . Formation of revenue mobilization task force to improve the IGF

. Motivating hard-working collectors and supervisors to improve the IGF

. Ceding certain revenue items to the Area councils for collection.

2.3.4 Challenges with Regard to Disbursement.

 Inadequate funding for programmes and projects  Delays in the release of funds which affect project implementation.  Difficulty in extraction of information for report writing  Difficulty in tracking funds from GOG paid direct to beneficiaries without , records to the Assembly.(e.g. GETFUND, Donor funds etc)

3.1 UPDATES ON CORE INDICATORS AND TARGETS

3.1.1 Agriculture

Agriculture is the single most important sector of the District Economy. It’s the major employer and as such the main activity that provides the people with income. The bane to development of the sector is that it is still characterised by traditional practices in face of modernity which has greatly limited productivity across the value chain.

During the year under review, the season remained wet and dry. There was moderate rainfall during the first half of the year coupled with intermittent sunny conditions. The weather pattern was better as compare to year 2016. Performance of crops was general satisfactory.

Registration of the famers was done on Rice, Cabbage as a vegetable as well as cassava to know the number who will participate and know the acreage. With rice, over Six Thousand (6,000) farmers have express interest to cultivate over seven Thousand (7,000) acres. Likewise, cabbage over Five Thousand (5,000) farmers have indicated their willingness to cultivate over Four Thousand (4,000) acres. 3. Farms of these farmers were measured. 4.

Capacity building for Extension officers

32

The extension officers at the department received training in Rice production local governance systems, good governance, financial management and service delivery. There were capacity building programmes for fall army worm control, animal production and post-harvest technologies. .

Creation of Marketing Centres During the year, the Assembly commissioned two weekly food markets at Anhwiaso and Tebeso II with Tuesdays and Mondays as market days respectively.

Veterinary attention  Disease and Pest surveillance activities were carried out.  PPR treatment on small ruminants (Sheep and Goat) was undertaken in about 20 communities.  Other animals such as cattle, pigs and poultry were also given attention.

Cocoa Diseases and Pest Control (CODAPEC) programme CAPSID Control There has been a major shift in the implementation of the CODAPEC programme since 2015. Unfortunately the District now does not have a central store or input distribution point. Communities in the Bosome and Bosomtwe East Area councils access inputs from Bekwai cocoa district, whilst those from Sunso Freho are zoned for Adansi-Brofoyedru cocoa district in the . Communities in the Nsuta Area Council are now part of the (Adansi South) Cocoa District.

This situation has resurfaced the myriad of problems the programme faced in 2008/2009. The project was managed by a similar arrangement. The programme is thus fraught with a lot of challenges among which are non-supply of inputs to many farmers who continuously complain to the Assembly which has virtually no clout to resolve them.

It was therefore difficult to get statistics of the programme as part of this report because the District Agric Development Unit could not provide a report on the project. It is strongly recommended that the programme be reverted to the District Offices of the Agric Department and be run on political district basis.

Challenges to agri development In spite of all the effort being made by the government to promote agric development the District administration should take note of the following and come out with strategies to overcome them to enable agric play its key role in the District’s economic development.  Lack of irrigation facilities.  High cost of labour  Poor road network  Mining of Gold destroying arable lands for agriculture.  Lack of staff accommodation  Lack of office accommodation.  High cost of agricultural.  Changing pattern of rainfall which go against agriculture

Generally the pass rate has been unpredictable being a little high initially dipping in 2012 rising in 2013 and falling in 2014 again. Over the past five years the results in 2015 was the best. Rising as high as 87%. Mechanism should therefore be put in place to ensure consistency in the pupils’ performance.

From the table above it has been shown that number of girls completing JHS 3 has been increasing steadily. However girls registering for BECE exams and passing showed a downward trend. From all indications the statistics is getter better in the sense that total

35

number of JHS leavers has been consistently increasing since 2011 with a dip in only 2014 which incidentally recorded the lowest pass rate. Female candidates sitting for exams and passing has also been on the increase over the period.

3.1.4 Ghana Health Service Activities The department carried out sensitisation on teenage pregnancy, maternal health and also promoted HIV/AIDS Behavioural Change Communication and prevention activities among

36

the central administration and other departments. There was also an increased awareness of preventable lifestyle diseases and embarked on periodic screening for diabetes, high blood pressure, hepatitis B, cancers and other communicable diseases.

The department of health service embarked on Oncho Drug Distribution in Communities. To attain high geographic and therapeutic drug distribution coverage of above 90% the department continued to organise telemedicine training for health staff in the District to sensitise them on modalities and skills in teleconsultation. Facilitative Supervision aim at accessing the level of understanding of sub-districts and CHPS Zones were also embarked upon.

Core Indicators

The District was unable to report on most of the core national indicators because there is no District hospital. These indicators are meant to be hospital based hence the inability of the District to report.

3.1.5 HIV/AIDS The District monitoring of HIV/ AIDS cases is hampered by lack of a hospital. Also the District do not have a sentinel site hence it difficult to calculate the prevalence rate. The only indicator used is the numbers of people who tested positive during the District know your status campaign.

3.2 Updates on Critical Development and Poverty Interventions

3.2.1 The Livelihood Empowerment against Poverty (LEAP) Programme The LEAP programme implementation commenced in the District during the latter part of 2014. In all, Eight (8) communities are currently benefiting. These are Nsuta, Nyamebekyere, Manfi, Alhajikrom, Ntowkrom, Keteke, Otoo Akura and Domkope. Plans are far advanced to expand the programme in the district and 30 communities has been selected and animated for the expansion.

Current beneficiaries of the LEAP Programme are remitted electronically via their e- zwich cards. However, the District Assembly through the Social Welfare and Community Development Department monitors and supervises each payment cycle which is done bi-monthly.

Twenty-Three (23) Households with Sixty-Nine (69) individuals qualified in the whole Nsuta- Area Council.

A motor bike has been provided by the Ministry of Gender and Social Protection to enhance the implementation the LEAP Programme and activities in the District. A major disturbing feature about the programme is that it is concentrated in geographical area. Although poverty concentration is highest in this area, there are other zones too where poverty is endemic but area left out of the programme. It is therefore recommended that consideration should be given to people that are hard core poor but not located in the officially designated poverty endemic areas.

People with Disabilities Fund (PWDS Fund) The District Disability Common Fund which is 2% of the District’s allocation of the District Assemblies Common Fund is managed by the District Disability Fund Management committee. The committee approves and disburses applications from individual persons with disability for financial support in order to better their lots.

It is important to note that the district did not receive any fund for persons with disability for the year 2017 and hence no disbursement was made.

The School Feeding Programme The Ghana School Feeding Programme (GSFP) is a special programme which seeks to provide one square meal for school pupils from kindergarten to the primary level.

The programme started off in the District in 2008 with one school but increased to 4 in 2008. The number was increased to 10 schools in the 2010/2011 academic year and in 2011/2012 the number was increased to 25 schools.

The table below shows the number of schools under the GSFP within the District and their corresponding enrolment figures from 2013 to 2016.

After a sharp rise in the pupils population in 2015 over 2014 academic year, there was a marginal rise of 2.03 percent in 2015 after which there has been an appreciable fall of 2.43 percent in 2006. In spite of the marginal rise in 2015 about 48percent of schools dropped in their enrolment figures which is about half of the schools benefiting from the programme and the same percentage of schools dropped in enrolment. The only difference between 2015 and 2016 is that the fall in enrolment in the 48 percent school were compensated for by more than proportionate rise in enrolment in the remaining 52 percent schools. And also the rate of fall in enrolment in the 48 percent of the beneficiary schools were higher as compared to those in 2015.

Major challenges to the efficient running of the programme in the District are;

i. Excessive delay in the release of grants to caterers. Beside the feeding grant being low, the release is always overly delayed which further burden the caterers by payment of high interest on loans secured to run the programme.

ii. Payment of Taxes on grant

47

The five percent tax deducted on the 80p grant further worsen the woes of caterers operating under the programme

Youth Employment Agency (YEA) Programme

In the 2016 year, the Agency resumed massive business by rolling out many modules. Among these were, Community Police Assistants (CPA), Youth in Fire Service (YIFS), Community Health Workers (CHW), E-Health, Community Education Teaching Assistants (CETA), Youth in Arabic Teaching, Environmental Protection Officers and Youth in Coastal Sanitation.

The Youth Employment Agency in the 2016 year recruited a total of two hundred and seventy three (273) youth across the district under the above programmes.

3.2.2 Incentives for Business Development i. Employment Generation and Business Development The level of commercial activities in the District is very low. The major occupation in the District is farming, which engages about 80% of the population. The farming system is mainly subsistence with the exception of some cocoa farmers whose activity is for commercial purpose. Vegetable farming is gaining popularity with emphasis on cabbage production. This account for mass exodus of the youth who are not interested in farming to urban centres such as Bekwai, , Konongo, , , Takoradi and after they complete basic education. The recent emergence of alluvial gold mining saw laour movement to small scale artisanal mining but farming remains the main stay of the people.

Department of Trade and Industry

The Rural Enterprises Programme In an attempt to diversify the economy, the District in 2010 established District Business Advisory Centre to promote skill training and small and medium scale businesses development. The Rural Enterprises Project which was the financier of the activities of the Business Advisory Centre ended in December 2011, fortunately the programme was re- launched in 2012 and implementation continued through to 2017. In the year under review the centre continued to monitor the groups trained and formed new groups. The emphasis of the second phase of the programme is on mushroom production, improving palm oil production and cassava processing.

The detail of activities organised with support from Sinapi Aba Trust were as follows;

v. Water and Sanitation Water and sanitation coverage in the district is not the best. Over the years the people’s access to potable water and approved sanitation facilities is worsening. This might be due to lack of interventions in this sector. Prior to the creation of the district communities had benefited from development partners and government of Ghana interventions such as the CWSP 1 & II, RWSP 1V & and its addendum but since 2011 there had not been any intervention in the water and sanitation sector the drilling of 10No. Boreholes.

Another contributing factor to the problem has been poor maintenance of existing water and sanitation facilities on the part of communities who own the water points and toilet facilities. This has led to the breakdown of many boreholes, this coupled with increase in population from natural factors and the influx of small scale miners in most communities in the district has contributed to reducing access and coverage of potable water.

4.2 Conclusion

With the coming into being of a new administration, it is highly advocated that the Assembly will fulfil its core mandate of bringing development to the people, there is the need to take advantage of policies that will trigger sustainable economic activities which will empower the local people and improve upon their livelihoods. This is in line with the current administration’s commitment to promote local economic activities in other to create jobs through the establishment of one factory for each and District and supporting each constituency with One Million US Dollars (US$1,000,000.00). Skill upgrading for tradesmen such as carpenters, mechanics, weavers, food processors and small scale manufacturers of industrial products such as soap, powder etc should still be given the relevant attention.

51

Also, the Assembly should not relent on her efforts to improve upon second cycle education and continue with the previous administration’s quest to establish additional second cycle institution to improve BECE leaver’s access to second cycle education. With the current government’s policy to make secondary school education free much attention to help absorb the teaming prospective candidates that may be seeking admission to second cycle education. The administration must continue to provide social infrastructure such as additional classroom block for the existing senior high technical school, markets, water and sanitation facilities, electricity and improve the road system because this forms the basis for industrial development.

The Assembly should last but not the least support agricultural production especially in the food crop production sector. Major rivers in the District such as the Anum, Pra and the Fre has wide flood plains that are suitable for rice cultivation, cabbage production along the slopes and valleys of the Bosomtwe ranges had also proved very profitable. Citrus and oil palm production are also major potentials of the district beside cocoa. The Assembly should therefore liaise with the District Agric Development Unit to come up with interventions to support production of these crops which has ready market and has proved profitable.
