The CEO and the BPA team called on the Paramount Chief of the Alavanyo Traditional Area Togbegah Tsedze Attakora VII and the Chief of the Alavanyo-Abehenease Community, Tobge Kunde IV. At the meeting Hon. Dzamesi pledged the continued support of BPA within the community.
The team then proceeded to the Abehenease community to the make the formal presentation of the Borehole facility. At the function, the CEO in his remarks, spoke about BPA’s awareness of the lack of healthy water in the area, and although the facility will not solve all the potable water problems in the area, it will contribute immensely to improving the situation for many people in the community.
The gift was initially intended to be a hand pump borehole but the CEO felt that a mechanised will better fit for the community and thus approved the construction of the current facility.
He therefore urged the community to take good care of the facility and appealed to the chief to put together a supervision team to ensure its efficient use.
