Awutu-Senya MP assures constituents
Story: Emmanuel Adu-Gyamerah

THE Member of Parliament (MP) for Awutu-Senya in the Central Region, Mr David Nana Larbie, has assured Ghanaians that the government is committed to its campaign promises and has therefore put in place measures to fulfil them before the end of its four-year mandate.
He said a number of social amenities and human-centred programmes that had been embarked on within the past one-and-a-half years were ample evidence that the government was capable of meeting its development targets to better the lives of ordinary Ghanaians.
“The Better Ghana Agenda is on course,” he said and called on Ghanaians to give the government the needed support to ensure the speedy achievement of the country’s development goals.
Nana Larbie gave the assurance when he toured a number of communities in his constituency to educate the people about deliberations in Parliament and also to interact with the people to know their concerns and aspirations.
He stated that the problems identified during his tour included the need to provide boreholes for communities without water and classrooms for schools under trees.
Nana Larbie gave the assurance that by the end of his first term in office, about 80 per cent of such schools under trees would be provided with classrooms.
He expressed concern about the deplorable nature of roads in the area and mentioned roads such as the Awutu-Obrakyire-Bontrase road as one of such roads.
Nana Larbie has built a community centre with part of his share of the common fund at Awutu Breku while the Ahentia D/A Junior High School has been renovated.
The MP added that he had also presented generators and televisions to a number of communities including Ahentia, Ayensuako and Fianko to enable them watch the on-going World Cup in South Africa.
In addition, 65 senior secondary school and tertiary students have been given scholarships ranging between GH¢200.00 and GH¢400.00 to enable them pursue their various academic courses.
