Some fifty-two communities in the Wassa Amenfi Central Constituency are being connected to the national electricity grid.
This, according to the Member of Parliament for the area, George Kofi Arthur who facilitated the project is very important to bringing some improvement into the social and economic lives of residents in beneficiary communities.
The project which is in line with government’s plan to connect a lot more deprived communities to the national grid is about 50 percent complete, the MP stated. Some of the beneficiary communities include K. Boateng, Grant, Supanso, Koofiekrom, Nuamakrom, Kyenkyekrom, Nkwanta, Camp and surrounding communities.
He said another electrification project ongoing is expansion of electricity to communities like Juabo, Sraha, Ayiem, Daboase, Ajakamanso, Nkwanta No.1 and No.2 among others.
Connecting all these communities to the national grid provides avenue to individuals with ambition and ability to raise funds to establish small scale enterprises to do so since electricity is commonly dependent on to power most machines.
