According to the Minister, the Ghana Water Company Limited is laying pipes to extend water to some communities in Upper Yilo and Manya Krobo from Kwasidiaka through Huhunya to serve Boti falls and Kono Dawa and communities around that area.

Mr. Joseph Kofi Adda noted that initially, the Bukunor water project was constructed to serve Koforidua and Tafo.

As a result of that communities in the Yilo Krobo and Upper Manya areas were not included in the project although the pipeline passes through a number of communities in the Yilo Krobo area.

This came to light when MP for Yilo Krobo Magnus Kofi Amoatey wanted to know when Upper Yilo and Manya Krobo areas water project would be completed.
