He said the assembly has since 2011 initiated numerous projects in the municipality, with some completed and handed over for use whiles few others were yet to be completed.

Mr. Anokye bemoaned how these ongoing projects have been halted due to lack of funds to push for their completion, but noted that the assembly was keen to complete all ongoing projects immediately the District Assembly’s Common fund (DACF) and District Development funds (DDF) are released. 

The PM reiterated that, the assembly was ready to rollout new projects quickly after all the “white elephant” projects are duely completed and handed over for use in their respective communities.

He however appealed to the government to ensure a swift disbursement of the District Assemblies Common fund to assist assemblies resolve their numerous challenges, since it cannot solely depend on its Internally Generated Funds (IGF) when DACFs are delayed.
