President Mahama Gives Free Cocoa Drink To Cape Coasters Through Pipes

President Mahama Gives Free Cocoa Drink To Cape Coasters Through Pipes

We wake up always to hear songs of praises from the people in governance and I think this one too is a very laudable one. The economy is hard and it's very laudable to be given this treat by our President after paying high taxes and bills. Our breakfast has been served.

Water is life and a necessity and as such must be accessible to all. Not just water but potable water but it's sad when you open your taps and you are either served with cocoa drink or with no drops of water at all. Water crisis is existent in almost every part of the country yet the Government always blow their own horns for providing potable water for the people. Well, perhaps they actually mean to say that they have being serving the people with the usual breakfast.

Cape Coast, the regional capital of the Central Region when it comes to water shortage. It's either the tap is almost dry or the usual cocoa drink is being served. It can't be disputed though that water runs through our taps but it's not consistent. We sometimes go days without water and have also received our share of the President 's cocoa drink breakfast delivered by the Ghana Water Company through our taps.

We only ask that we be served our due thus services must be equated to our expenditure. We pay much for utility bills and it's fair that we be given quality services.
