At the presentation ceremony held at the premises of the Tano South District Assemby, Mr. Diarous Nii Ashiadu said the presentation of the machines to the beneficiaries will go a long way to solve some of the unemployment issues as the beneficiaries would also secure the services of others in the course of their work. He thus urged the beneficiaries to put the machines and tools into good use.
The Tano South District Engineer, Mr. Fredrick Sackey said health and safety is paramount in the performance of their businesses especially, as they are going to use machines and tools and advised them to take precautionary measures when working by using protective gadgets.
The Convener of the RTF, Hon. Comfort Pwagia told the beneficiaries in a speech that, as they have been handed the items and were going out to work, they should ensure that, they save enough money to expand their business to be able to employ more hands.

The Chairman of the artisan group of the Bechem Light Industrial Site (magazine) Mr. Robert Ankomah in a short speech urged the beneficiaries not to divert the items they have received to others but use them on their own to earn a living and be able also to help others to learn the business.
Speaking to the beneficiaries, the Tano South District Coordinating Director, Mrs Agartha Ahia exhorted the beneficiaries to be of good behaviour as they go out to work since they would be engaging with a lot of people in the course of their work and use the occasion to advise the female among them to be more committed to their work and not to rely on the usual boy and girl relationship which mostly lead to unplanned pregnancies which causes them to stop work.
Mrs. Ahia urged the beneficiaries to go out and be good mannered people and work well.
