The Member of Parliament for the Krachi Nchumuru constituency, Solomon Kuyon, has donated a massive consignment of medical equipment, dual desks, and motorbikes to support the healthcare and education sectors across the district.
Addressing stakeholders during the presentation, Kuyon emphasized that as a native of the area, he remains deeply aware of the socio-economic and infrastructural challenges confronting the young constituency, particularly in health, education, and basic social amenities.
He stated that while the challenges are numerous, leadership requires taking decisive action step by step, adding that the presentation forms part of an ongoing series of interventions to uplift the district.
To improve emergency power supply and patient care, the lawmaker presented four three-phase generator plants alongside 14 hospital beds, wheelchairs, blood pressure apparatuses, glucometers with test strips, thermometers, and medical gloves.
The three-phase generators and the bulk of the medical supplies were presented to St. Luke’s Hospital, Gurubi Health Facility, Borae Health Facility, and Wonando Health Facility. Furthermore, both the Banda Health Centre and the Chinderi Health Centre received two hospital beds each to bolster their admission capacities.
In the education sector, Solomon Kuyon handed over 150 dual desks and four motorbikes to the Ghana Education Service (GES) Directorate. Explaining the rationale behind the vehicle donation, the lawmaker highlighted the difficult terrain of the district, which contains several hard-to-reach communities.
He noted that Circuit Supervisors face severe logistical hurdles when conducting oversight, and the motorbikes will provide the reliable transportation needed to ensure effective supervision across all remote schools.
Clarifying the source of funding for the procurement, Kuyon dispelled any notion that the intervention was financed through personal funds, affirming instead that the project was executed using his official statutory funds allocated for constituency development.
