In another development, the DCE continued to Nkonya Tayi in honour of a Fundraising activity by the good people of Nkonya Tayi.

The fundraising was in aid of developing a Park for Sporting Activities.

The DCE in addressing Nananom and the people of Tayi said, sports is one of the areas that most communities do not commit money to and that this single vision of the people of Tayi, was worthy of recommendation.

Madam Carboo showered praises on them and said again that she will like to see champions of the various sports disciplines being raised from Nkonya Tayi and Nkonya Tayi becoming the sports hub of the district. As noted of her, she didn't leave without donating to the worthy course of the people of Nkonya Tayi.
