According to the DCE, the district has a number of challenges, however, the area of education and health are the two key areas of focus since these two have direct implications on the people of the district.

"Indeed we have challenges, one of which is the issue of our roads. But the idea is to put our monies into things that would directly impact the lives of our people and that's why we are building school infrastructure, health facilities and giving farm inputs to farmers in the district. These are the areas the focus is for now so as to empower our people economically", he said.

The MP in his address stated that the projects are meant to reduce the plight of school children in the community and beyond who do not have enough space of comfort to study.

He added that the projects have an estimated cost of GHs 300,000 and GHs 450,000 respectively; adding that they are GETFund projects and are expected to be completed within a period of 6 months.
