Chief Executive Officer (CEO) for Coastal Development Authority (CODA), Lawyer Jerry Ahmed Shaib, in his speech at the ceremony explained that the project is being funded by the one million dollar one constituency program through the Infrastructure for Poverty Eradication Programme (IPEP) under the Ministry of Special Development Initiatives (MSDI).

According to him, after several community engagements and consultations with the Zongo Chiefs and people of the Ayawaso East Constituency, they requested for the redevelopment of the park into a multipurpose pitch with facilities like artificial grass, changing rooms, flood lights, fencing, seats and others to help in the development of football talents among the youth. He said this project is in fulfillment of the President’s promise of ensuring that development is brought to the doorstep of the people.

He explained that the pitch will not be used only for playing of football but also it can be used for other activities like durbars, funerals and other events when necessary. He used the opportunity to thank the Zongo chiefs and youths for their support and acceptance for the redevelopment of the Kawukudi Park into a modern multipurpose pitch. According to him the project after completion would be managed and maintained by the municipal assembly since there would be the need for payment of utilities on the facility.
