The residents of MafiKorfe, a community in the Takla electoral area of the Ho Municipality, have expressed their gratitude to the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Parliamentary Candidate, Hon. Edem Richmond Kofi Kpotosu, for inaugurating a new mechanized borehole in the area.
Before this intervention, the community often had to share water with livestock in the area and relied on private polytanks for survival, prompting them to appeal to authorities for assistance.
However, on Friday, March 15, 2024, the community witnessed the inauguration of a high-speed mechanized borehole funded by Hon. Edem Kofi Kpotosu to alleviate their water scarcity issues and mitigate the impact of cattle activities in the area.
Following the commissioning of the water project, the Parliamentary Candidate urged the community to utilize the water wisely and to adopt a maintenance-oriented approach to prolong the borehole’s lifespan. He also encouraged them to consider revenue generation plans to ensure funds are available for emergencies related to water supply.
MafiKorfe, a developing farming community situated between the Ho Airport and Sonrise, comprises approximately 50 households within the Municipality.
Community leader Sohefia Awuku Tsamenyi assured the candidate of their support in his bid for the Parliamentary seat, citing his humanitarian intervention in their community.
He urged Hon. Kpotosu to continue his altruistic deeds and requested his assistance in creating job opportunities for women and girls in the area.
The women of the community also appealed to the Parliamentary Candidate for support in completing an ongoing clinic project, which would provide essential healthcare services to the community.
Prior to the refurbishment of the MafiKorfe borehole, Hon. Edem Richmond Kofi Kpotosu had already rehabilitated a borehole at Fulani Korfe and pledged to undertake similar interventions in other communities within the constituency to address the challenges faced by the people.
