Anthony Komla Avorgbedor, the Municipal Chief Executive of Ketu North, detailed the utilization of the $1 million budget allocated to his constituency during TV3's Community Manifesto.
He revealed that part of the funding was used to purchase an ambulance and to build a warehouse for farmers, aimed at reducing post-harvest losses and stabilizing food prices.
This initiative aligns with President Akufo-Addo's 2017 promise to allocate $1 million annually per constituency for infrastructure development through the Infrastructure for Poverty Eradication Programme (IPEP).
The funds are now managed by three development authorities after their establishment by Parliament.
