He said the construction of the community centre would go a long way to enhance economic activities in the area. Ms. Silvia Serwaa Akoto, project supervisor and leader of the group, said Kasapin was chosen because the community had materials needed for the construction of the centre. She stated that the services to be provided by the volunteers were basically the provision of unskilled labour. Ms Amanda Summer Scales, Senior Coordinator for Platform II, said the volunteers were also helping the people at Achiase in Ashanti region to construct a 24 seater toilet and a modern library complex. She called on the community to rekindle their communal labour spirit for the speedy completion of work on the community centre.
