The Chief of Takoradi-Amanful, Nana Obo Atta Kojo Essoun III, has financed the construction of a mechanised borehole to serve his people.This is the first developmental project that has been embarked on by the chief since he was enstooled less than two months ago.
Commissioning the project last Thursday, Nana Obo Atta Kojo Essoun, underscored the importance of water to mankind.
According to him, upon assumption of office he realised that water had been a challenge in his traditional area.
As a result, he decided to personally finance the construction of the mechanised borehole to serve the people of Amanful and surrounding areas.
“As a chief I cannot sit unconcerned as my subjects’ battle for safe drinking water”, Nana told the gathering.
He told his subjects that the borehole project would not be the first, neither would it be last, to help mitigate water challenges facing the traditional area.
Consequently, he has promised to construct four additional mechanised boreholes in satellite Amanful areas to deal with the situation.
The commissioning of the borehole project brought many dignitaries to Amanful, including Assemble Members, traditional leaders, the clergy and many more people.
Nana Obo asked for proper maintenance of the project.The project was symbolically handed over to the Assembly Member for the area.She pledged to take good care of the project for the benefit of the people.
