Assemblyman mobilising funds in
aid of education
Obuasi (Ash), Nov. 21, GNA – The Assemblyman for
Obuasi-Anyinam, Mr Lawrence Nana Obeng Bondah, has
expressed the desire to mobilise the various
companies and well-to-do citizens to set up an
education fund to support the needy but brilliant
children in the electoral area.
“One of my major missions and visions is to set up
an education fund where the various companies and
citizens, both resident and non-resident would be
appealed to, to support so that needy but brilliant
pupils and students would be assisted in their
schooling”, he told the Ghana News Agency in an
interview.
The assemblyman called for stakeholder support to
promote education in the area.
Mr Bondah, a Banker, said he would initiate contacts
with mining and other companies operating in the
area to see how best they could help solve the
problem of youth unemployment in the electoral area.
The assemblyman pointed out that the Anyinam
community lacks some basic social amenities like
potable water and electricity and said with unity
and sense of purpose, those needs could be met.
He therefore appealed to the electorate, especially
those he contested with and their supporters, to
team up with him to promote the development of the
area.
“Let us do away with divisive tendencies and unite
for the progress of the electoral area”.
The assemblyman commended his opponents in the
election for the maturity they showed after he was
declared the winner and appealed to them to put the
defeat behind them and rally behind him for the
attainment of the expected development.
Mr Bondah said his victory was for the entire
community and assured that he would not discriminate
should “anything good come out of his stewardship”.
