Member of Parliament for Ayawaso East, Hon. Naser Mahama Touree has donated five (5) tricycles popularly known as “Motor King” to the constituency as a way of alleviating the high unemployment rate among the youth.
The comprehensively insured tricycles which cost GHC 20,000 is to be given to some selected unemployed youth to use on “work and pay” terms to earn them income, after which they have to pay for the tricycles at a yet to be determined time, following which it becomes their property. This will enable other unemployed youth to benefit from the scheme.
Using the “Motor King” has in recent times become the most popular means of carting goods from markets and also hauling waste, an exercise which fetches the owners some good money.
Presenting the facility, Hon. Naser Mahama Touree stated that the donation is in fulfilment of the pledge he made during his electioneering campaign last year to help find jobs for the teeming number of youth in the densely populated area.
The MP funded the purchase of the tricycles with his own resources promising to secure more of the facility if the current beneficiaries handle them with care.
Hon. Naser Mahama Touree emphasized his commitment to honouring all his campaign promises which will go a long way in improving the living conditions of his constituents. Mr Olabode Williams, the Constituency Chairman on receiving the tricycles expressed gratitude to the MP for his kind gesture and promised to ensure that the facility is well taken care of
