MP A Plus announces groundbreaking of new market in Gomoa Asebu, paving way for a dual carriageway and West Africa’s biggest wholesale mall as part of a bold vision for a 24-hour economy.



Gomoa Central Breaks Ground on Transformational Market Project and 24-Hour Business District

GOMOA ASEBU, CENTRAL REGION — A new era of infrastructure and commerce has begun in Gomoa Central, with the groundbreaking of a brand-new market in Gomoa Asebu scheduled for this Thursday. The development, announced by the Member of Parliament for Gomoa Central, Kwame Asare Obeng (A Plus), is part of an ambitious plan to modernize the area, improve infrastructure, and position the constituency as a dynamic commercial hub.

The relocation of the old market is the first critical step in clearing the way for two major projects: a dual carriageway and West Africa’s largest wholesale mall.

According to MP A Plus, the real excitement begins in June 2025, when the full vision will be unveiled. Commercial and residential spaces will go on sale off-plan, offering early investors an opportunity to own property in what is projected to become Ghana’s first 24-Hour Business District.

Strategic Location and Cultural Assets Fuel Gomoa Central’s Growth

Gomoa Central’s proximity to major educational institutions like the University of Education, Winneba, Perez University, and the Pan African Heritage Museum—alongside major religious conventions like those hosted by the Ahmadiyya Muslim Mission Headquarters—makes it a natural magnet for local and international visitors.

Surrounded by historical treasures such as Cape Coast Castle, Elmina Castle, Kakum National Park, and the Assin Manso Slave River, the region blends commerce with culture and history. With access to the Muni-Pomadze Ramsar Site, International Stingless Bee Centre, and West Africa’s largest tree in Akim Oda, the constituency also sits at the heart of Ghana’s tourism corridor.

Game-Changer: Accra–Cape Coast Highway Underway

A Plus emphasized that the ongoing construction of the Accra–Cape Coast Highway will cut the travel time between Kasoa and Gomoa Central to just 15 minutes, making it more accessible than parts of Accra’s suburbs like Oyibi, Amasaman, and Community 25. This connectivity boost is expected to drive both residential and commercial growth.

Call to Action: Let’s Build Our Own ‘Dubai’

Challenging Ghanaians to reimagine development, A Plus stated, “Owning an apartment in Dubai might sound fancy, but it’s far away… Why not build our own version of Dubai right here in Ghana?”

He praised former President Mahama’s 24-Hour Economy vision as the inspiration for a purpose-driven, always-on economic district that supports local business, attracts foreign investment, and generates jobs.

Final Words: From Vision to Action

“Dubai was built by human beings. Ghana shall be built by human beings. Enough of the talking—let’s start building. Charley, make we do am!” he concluded in a passionate rallying cry.

The project promises to be a beacon of hope and transformation—not just for Gomoa Central, but for Ghana’s broader economic future.
