In an interview, the DCE noted that the MP has drilled more than thirty boreholes across the district, and also partnered some Non-Governmental Organisations who came in to support. Also through his involvement, a clinic is being built at Wasser to aid in health delivery.

Other areas that have seen the support of the MP is sanitation and supply of furniture to support basic schools.

“Last year he sponsored over two hundred students that are in the tertiary institutions. This year, he has expanded and paying full school fees for those doing specialized courses in medicine, pharmacy, and computer engineering.

So, if you are a student from that rural area, you can get an amazing opportunity to do this course. He did not pay for one year but full course until you complete the school”, the DCE pointed out.

Network Challenges

Another thorny issue confronting the district is network challenges, and the DCE stated that even some communities in the district capital do not have network to operate their mobile phones.

“We have been able to liaise with the GIFEC department, and they have extended some of rural telephone centers to some of the communities. But because of lack of electricity, some of them cannot function, so the MP again is extending electricity to these areas for network and rural telephone centers so that people can have access to communication.
