The Assin Central Member of Parliament, Kennedy Agyapong, has promised to sponsor Assembly members in the Assin North municipality to study abroad to improve the local governance system in the municipality regardless of members political affiliation.
According to him, the assemblymen would be selected at random with respect to their qualities but not faces or by partisan favors.
He made the assertion at the confirmation ceremony of the Assin North MCE, Nicholas Fiifi Baako in Assin Fosu in the Central Region.
He added that the aim of the exercise is to expose them to foreign policies with the aim to make meaningful contributions to develop the country.
Furthermore, the Assin Central legislator called on the newly MCE to put a smile on the faces of the Assembly members by way of giving them contracts.
This he noted will help them to be financially sound to help their various electoral areas.
“I’m going to select not by faces or party but by your qualities. You will be traveling Outside Ghana for you to experience how other people have developed their country…”
“It’s very important. So that when we come back to take a decision the exposure will help make meaningful contribution…”
“Many at times, with all due respect, a lot of you don’t have the opportunity to travel so when you come up a vision. Many of our assemblymen don’t share the same vision. This exercise would help a lot…” he said.
