District heads of departments, agencies, assembly members and members of Parliament have been urged to do away with acts that might thwart development efforts.
The District Chief Executive for Jomoro in the Western Region, Mr Victor Nyanyin Kabla, said the focus of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government was to develop and make life better for the people and called on all to support the government.
He said it would be wrong if issues of development were relegated to the background.
Mr Kabla, who was speaking at the special General Assembly Meeting at Half-Assini, said it was important “we work as a team to justify the confidence the people reposed in us”.
He said the district was resourced and it was about time that they did everything possible to ensure that the potential of the area was harnessed to the advantage of the people.
“I have taken office as chief executive, but I would be relying on your cooperation and understanding through teamwork to ensure that the people do not lose confidence in us,” he said.
“We have to be innovative and exhibit a high sense of discipline in the performance of our duties to facilitate the delivery of government’s mission and also the business of the district assembly,” he said.
The DCE assured the department of his support and urged the staff to know that the assembly stood the chance of developing faster if they worked as a team.
The Member of Parliament for Jomoro, Samia Yaba Nkrumah, expressed her gratitude to the presiding member, the chief executive and the entire management of the assembly for their support.
She said through teamwork, both the district administration and the Member of Parliament would achieve a lot to better the lives of the people in the area who she described as well endowed.
“The said agenda as we all pursue, was to seek the general good of our people. The challenges confronting us are obvious and are staring at us for answers, therefore we must unite for the good of our people,” she said.
“The people of the district are looking for the answers for the poor school infrastructure, poor health facilities and road networks to sanitation, water and environment,” she said.
The MP said the issues of unemployment, and others were daunting saying “we must remember that, it is against this back-drop that we have chosen among ourselves to represent the interest of our people to bring relieved to our problems.”
She said she had no doubt that with the assemblage of all in the assembly, the task ahead would be easy to surmount.
