Kwabena Okyere Darko-Mensah performing the sod cutting ceremony<\/strong><\/p>\nThe Western Regional Minister,
\nKwabena Okyere Darko-Mensah, has noted that the Regional Coordinating Council
\nwas poised to provide a permanent solution to the water problem being faced by
\nthe people of Supomu Dunkwa in the Shama District of the region.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He mentioned that improving water
\nservices and uses, was essential for increasing hygiene and sanitation service
\nlevels that affected productive lives of people.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Regional Minister stated this
\nwhen he cut the sod for the extension of water supply from Ghana Water Company
\nLimited (GWCL) at Daboase to Supomu Dunkwa.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He pointed out that when the
\nextension work was completed, it would improve the local economic and social
\nwell being of the people in the area.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He added that safe and affordable
\ndrinking water for all required that there should be an investment in the
\nappropriate infrastructure to ensure water accessibility to all.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cGhana has since the mid 1990s been
\nimplementing string of reforms in the water sector aimed at enhancing the
\nefficiency of the production and utilization of water,\u201d he stressed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He noted that although the Western
\nRegion was considered to be one of the wet areas of the country, current
\nfigures put it at the lowest rank on the ladder in terms of rural potable water
\ncoverage with just 44.20 per cent.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He attributed it partly to the
\ndifficult terrain in the region, which made access to many of the rural
\ncommunities difficult and which had consistently resulted in low investment in
\nrural water and sanitation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Member of Parliament for the
\narea, Ato Panford indicated that the extension of water to Supomu Dunkwa was
\none of his campaign promises and was happy that it was being fulfilled.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He called on the residents to give the contractor all the requisite support to ensure that the project was completed on schedule.<\/p>\n
