Okatakyie Afrifa-Mensah at the Tabre Waterfalls
Ghanaian media personality Okatakyie Afrifa-Mensah has called on the Ghana Tourism Authority (GTA) to take urgent steps to develop and promote the Tabre Waterfalls in the Afigya Sekyere East Constituency of the Ashanti Region to attract both local and international tourists.
According to him, the waterfalls have enormous tourism potential and, if properly developed and promoted, could become a major tourist attraction, generating revenue and creating employment opportunities for residents.
He noted that developing the tourist site would particularly benefit young people in the community, including tricycle riders, who could earn income by transporting tourists to and from the attraction.
Okatakyie Afrifa-Mensah made the appeal during a visit to the waterfalls on October 10, 2026, as part of activities marking his birthday celebration.
