Mr. Samuel Ofosu Ampofo, Minister for Local Government & Rural Development

THE NEW Municipal Chief Executive for Offinso South in the Ashanti Region, Baafuor Amankwa-Kese has appealed to members of the Assembly to refrain from partisan tendencies and help improve the lives of the people whose interest they represent at the local assembly.

He called for Unity among them saying without unity nothing good in terms of development and infrastructural facilities could come to the municipality.

MCE Amankwa-Kesse reminded them of the need to remain united as one people and forge ahead towards one goal, which he said is to raise the living standard of the people and making lives bearable for them.

Speaking to The Chronicle just after his election as the Municipal Chief Executive, Mr. Amankwa-Kesse appealed to the rank and file to inculcate the habit of communal labour in their constituents to promote cleanliness to help eradicate the dangers of malaria in the municipality.

He also called for a collective effort in ensuring a healthy environment through the active participation of all assembly members.

The new MCE also appealed to the foot soldiers of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) and Ghanaians to be patient as President Atta Mills executes   his Better Ghana Agenda for the benefit of all Ghanaians.

Mr. Amankwa-Kesse further appealed to all heads of departments to stay focus and embark on more developmental projects to ensure that the people get their fair share of the National cake.
