Message from the Superintendent

Sinoe has great potential to become the engine of economic growth for the country. It is rich in natural resources including gold, diamond and timber. It has a long coastline with white sandy beaches, lush green vegetation and several waterfalls. Sinoe is also host to the Sapo National Park, the country’s first nature reserve.

This Sinoe County Development Agenda draws on the County’s strengths and takes into consideration weaknesses and challenges to its development and transformation. It endeavors to build on core values of transparent governance with equal opportunity for all, the promotion of sustainable economic growth and job creation as well as the rational management of the natural resources and protection of the environment in an atmosphere of peace, security and the rule of law.

The CDA is the blueprint for a Sinoe that will be a national leader in development and innovation, where citizens have food security and enjoy access to basic social services with modern infrastructure.

Our special thanks go to the Ministry of Planning, and to the U.N. County Support Team that served as support staff to the local administration in soliciting the views of the citizens of the County and writing this document.

Lastly, we whole-heartedly wish to thank all the participants in this process, especially the District Commissioners, Paramount, Clan and Town Chiefs, and especially the citizens of the County for their patience and willing cooperation during the entire exercise.

Sylvester Grigsby
Superintendent
Sinoe County
