The NDC Parliamentary candidate for Okere Constituency, Mr Micheal Ofori Ofei has commissioned a borehole facility for the people of Kwomante, a farming community near Apirede in the Eastern Region.
The facility is in fulfillment of a promise made following an earlier request by the Odikro of the area, Nana Kojo Largely when the candidate visited there a month ago as part of his constituency tour.
Nana Kakra, as the candidate is affectionately called, said the people of the area needed good quality water to survive, adding that water is life.
He said leadership was not just about winning elections but empowering the people to be self sufficient, and promised that when voted as the Member of Parliament for Okere in the November 7 polls he will offer quality leadership to move Okere forward.
He paid tribute to the late Fuzzy Torbay whom he said raised the name of Okere Constituency high on the political ladder.
The parliamentary aspirant called on the youth of Kwaomante who have attained the age of 18 years and above but who did not get the chance to register in the previous election to do so in their numbers when the exercise begins from April 28 to May 8, 2016.
He urged the youth to have faith in the NDC Government led by President John Dramani Mahama because the policies being implemented will soon yield positive results.
The odikro of Kwaomante, Nana Kojo Largely thanked the candidate for his generosity and assured him of the people’s support.
Among the dignitaries who graced the occasion were the MCE of Akuapem North, Mr George Opare Addo and the NDC constituency chairman for Okere.
