Mozart Kweku Owuh made the commendation at the 2nd General Assembly Meeting of the 4th Session of the 4th Assembly held at the Municipal Assembly Hall, Bogoso.

He said that, the hard work and commitment of the Assembly members is highly commendable and worthy of praise. He also said, the Assembly Members have done very well by using their Community Assistance Support judiciously.

According to him, the enormous work done by the Assembly Members which has given the Municipality a face lift is indeed cost-effective and shared responsibility.

Mr. Mozart Kweku Owuh revealed that, through the mandate of the Assembly Members, the Assembly took part in the Sanitation Challenge in which out of Seventeen (17) MMDA’s that were shortlisted for the final award, Prestea Huni-Valley Municipal Assembly placed third (3rd) in the District category and was awarded a plaque and a cash prize of Twenty-Five Thousand Pounds (€ 25000).

He was hopeful that, all the Assembly Members will be re-elected in order to champion the course of development together for the benefit of the people. "Working together with this current crop of hard-working, youthful and energetic members full of ideas and initiatives are something I cannot afford to lose", he added.

The MCE however appealed to the media houses to be circumspect in their reportage as we gear up to the District Level Elections. "Inflaming passion and dividing the people along political lines would derail our effort and compromise our security, this is not what we need now", he cried.

On her part the Member of Parliament for Prestea Huni-Valley Constituency, Barbara Oteng-Gyasi said she was of the hope that all the Assembly Members will be re-elected because they have done a good job from the period they were elected as Assembly Members and for that matter their good work will be the decider.

She appealed to the Assembly Members to educate their people on the ongoing reforms in Local Government, especially effort to elect MMDCEs. She added that, that would be the only way the people can decide on who governs them at the local level.
