About Central Tongu Municipal  District

Profile of DCE

Under the committed leadership of Hon. Adison Mornyuie Dodzie, the Central Tongu District in the Volta Region of Ghana is experiencing a phase of targeted development that touches on education, agriculture, climate resilience, and disaster recovery. Since assuming office in April 2025, Hon. Dodzie has actively championed projects that support community welfare while reflecting his deep ties to the district.

Hailing from New Bakpa, Hon. Dodzie began his journey in education, graduating from Kpando Senior High School before continuing to Ada College of Education. Between 1995 and 1998, he taught in basic schools and later pursued tertiary studies in Building Technology and Quantity Survey at Ho Polytechnic.

His technical acumen led him to teach Technical Drawing and Building Construction at Mafi Kumase Senior High Technical School, and he went on to earn a Bachelor of Science degree in Quantity Survey and Construction Economics from Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology.

Professionally, Hon. Dodzie served as General Manager at MPC, a construction firm in Tema, for three years, and is currently the Managing Director of Siksons Company Limited—a construction and water engineering firm with a broad national footprint. His years in the field have cultivated a practical, results-oriented leadership style that now guides district governance.

Projects

Among the district’s flagship interventions is the flood resilience and resettlement project, launched in response to the Akosombo Dam spillage. This initiative involves coordinated planning and site development aimed at relocating affected residents in areas like Old Bakpa, Mafi Devime, and Dorgbadzikope. The district is focused on creating sustainable housing solutions that restore safety and dignity.

Educational outreach programs supporting climate-smart agriculture and digital financial literacy are also being extended to farming communities, helping to modernize agricultural practices and improve yields.

The push toward youth development has led to plans for a Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) campus in the district. This future institution is envisioned as a beacon of opportunity, providing practical skills aligned with industry needs to equip the next generation of professionals and entrepreneurs.

Environmental stewardship is another priority under Hon. Dodzie’s administration. Tree planting exercises and climate change sensitization campaigns have been actively promoted, with bushfire prevention education reaching several communities. These programs are building a culture of responsibility and resilience in the face of environmental challenges.

Through it all, Hon. Dodzie’s leadership remains grounded in problem-solving, collaboration, and long-term vision. His ability to navigate challenges and chart decisive paths forward has made him a respected figure throughout the district. With continued emphasis on inclusive development, education, and sustainability, his tenure is setting a strong foundation for Central Tongu’s future.
