Door to door mail delivery to be expanded
The door-to-door delivery of mails project is to be expanded over a five year period to cover other regional and district capitals that have proper layout with well demarcated numbered buildings.
The delivery of mails was introduced in 1999 as a three-year pilot project by Ghana Post Company Limited in the Regimanuel Gray, Sakumono, Golden Gates, Manet and Parakuo estates to meet the growing demand from customers to receive their mails in their homes.
Mr Felix Owusu-Adjapong, Minister for Communications and Technology, said this in Parliament last week in answer to a question by Mr Ransford Yaw Agyepong, NPP-Suhum, as to what plans the ministry had to deliver mails to homes, at least in the regional and district Capitals.
Mr Agyepong asked the Minister when the ministry would link with GP to consider the naming of streets and houses and the Minister said it was the work of the district assemblies but it would need co-operation from other sectors to make it successful.
Mr Edward Salia, NDC-Jirapa asked what positive results had so far been achieved by the project and the Minister said the people had expressed satisfaction about the early delivery of their mails and more people were patronising it.
