He said the media is the first point of contact when citizens do not understand policies, therefore it is better for the media to understand the Digital Address System to be able to explain better to their readers, viewers and listeners.

The south-east cluster head of Ghana Post, Bernard Atta-Sonno pleaded with journalists to constantly educate the people about the importance of having a Digital Address, assuring them that there will be a resource person from their outfit to come to the studio or join them by phone at any point in time

About 30 young men and women were trained at the Ghana Post regional headquarters in Ho on the GhanaPostGPS App and will move from house to house in the Volta Region to generate digital addresses for individuals for free and tag buildings upon request.
