Mr Charles Akwasi Asiedu, the Member of Parliament (MP) for Tano South in the Ahafo Region has distributed 200 streetlight bulbs to be shared among communities for improved security.

The MP distributed the bulbs to Assembly Members (AMs) at a short ceremony at Bechem, and asked AMs to ensure that their respective local communities benefited from the bulbs.

Speaking at a ceremony, Mr Asiedu said the distribution of the bulbs were devoid of partisan consideration, urging the AMs to also ensure that streetlights in their respective communities were improved.

Mr Emmanuel Kwame Frimpong, the Tano South Municipal Chief Executive commended the MP for the bulbs and cautioned the AMs against the temptation of selling the bulbs to the community members.

He said the Assembly would also monitor to ensure that those bulbs were fixed and to enhance the lighting systems in the communities.

Mr Frimpong warned that any AM who might divert the bulbs would be sanctioned accordingly, and expressed the hope that he was confident that none of them would use the bulbs for other purposes.

Nana Ampong Koranmanteng III, the Krotrihene (sub-chief) of Techimantia advised the AMs to engage the community members regularly, listen and help identify and address their emerging development needs.
