Thank you for the correction. Yes 1979 coup collapsed companies like GNTC, SCOA, GB Olivantes etc. Sekondi has now reduced to city of abandoned ware houses. Sekondi is dying and I think government should have plans to rebuild it commercial status of the 60s and 70s.

What is "Nmoasem" about the clear observation being made. You're blind if you don't see or know what's happened and is happening to Sekondi.

As long as I know, Sekondi was the capital of Western Region.
I remember once meeting the then Western Regional Minister at his office in Sekondi, when our school (in Takoradi) went on strike and we (prefects) of the school were sent to meet the regional minister.

Takoradi is the business capital while Sekondi is the administrative capital, just like Abuja is the administrative capital of Nigeria while Lagos remains business capital.
