Gov't Intent On Improving Conditions In Rural Areas - Assemblyman

Offinso (Ashanti Region), 13 Sept., It is the genuine desire of the government to improve the quality of life of the people and enhance economic growth in rural communities to bridge the gap between rural and urban areas. Mr. J. K. Adjei, Assemblyman for Amaning electoral area in the Offinso District said this when he interacted with the people on the need to embark on community-initiated projects.
