A site possession ceremony has been held to hand over an abandoned twenty-four-year-old 3-storey block for the Birim Central Municipal Assembly to a new contractor.
The Member of Parliament for the area, Alexander Akwasi Acquah successfully lobbied the District Assembly Common Fund to intervene to fund and complete the project.
Speaking at the event, the MP asserts that the municipality went through a whole lot last year and “we pray this very year goes our way”, he said.
He said “an MP’s responsibility is to plead for developmental projects for his constituency and the MCE and her people take over from there. This, he said is the reason why an MP and his MCE should have a good rapport.
He promised that the Akim Oda Market project will start and be completed in his tenure as MP while assuring that the construction of roads and other projects are also in the pipeline.
