The Mayor of Bo, Kobba Musa, has reaffirmed his commitment to inclusive governance, emphasizing cooperation across political lines in delivering key municipal services.

Speaking during the Truth Morning Devotion program, Mayor Musa disclosed that one of his administration’s flagship waste management projects is being led by an opposition councillor from the All People’s Congress (APC). According to the Mayor, Councillor Sheriff has taken a leading role in advancing the initiative, which he described as central to improving sanitation in the city.

Musa noted that despite political differences, he maintains a cordial and productive working relationship with all four APC councillors serving on the Bo City Council. He stressed that collaboration, rather than political division, has been key to the progress recorded so far.

“I am friendly with them, and we work together effectively,” he said, highlighting his administration’s openness to working with representatives from across the political spectrum.

The Mayor further explained that his leadership approach prioritizes inclusivity and shared responsibility. In an interview with Truth Media, he stated that fostering cooperation among councillors has enabled more effective service delivery and strengthened governance at the local level.

Observers say the arrangement reflects a notable example of bipartisan cooperation within local government, where opposition figures are actively contributing to policy implementation and development initiatives.

For residents of Bo, the collaboration is seen as a practical approach to addressing persistent urban challenges, particularly waste management. The Mayor’s stance suggests that collective action among elected officials, regardless of party affiliation, may be critical in improving living conditions and advancing development goals in the city.

As Bo continues to confront issues related to sanitation and urban growth, the emphasis on cross-party engagement may serve as a model for other local councils seeking to prioritize service delivery over political rivalry.
