Residents within the Sefwi Akontombra have every cause to be elated since the Member of Parliament for the Constituency; Hon. Herod Cobbina has initiated a number of developmental projects in various sectors within the area particularly in health and education to enable them rock shoulders with other developed towns.

In health for instance, the MP has executed more than five projects including Community-based health planning services (CHIPS), clinics and other health facilities in towns such as Manukrom, Aprutu, Bawakrom and Nsawora.

According to Hon. Cobbina, whereas the CHPs compound at Manukrom is at the lintel level, those at Bawakrom and Aprutu are 99% completed and foundation level respectively. He added that the Nsawora health centre which benefited from a new clinic block are yet to use the new facility since it is about 90 percent completed.

The MP who hinted about the projects in an interaction with GhanaMps.gov.gh said he funded most of the projects from his share of the Common Fund as well as from his own coffers.

In education, the MP said he has rehabilitated the old school block at Yawkrom with roofing sheets, plastering, painting and wiring to enable the school to have a serene atmosphere for teaching and learning.
