Nelson Kofi Djabab, the Member of Parliament (MP) for the Krachi East Constituency, has commended the government for addressing the premix fuel supply challenges in the country.
The lawmaker alleged that the failure of the previous New Patriotic Party (NPP) administration to ensure that Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) paid the Tema Oil Refinery (TOR) for premix fuel led to shortages and erratic supply.
Djabab claimed that during the NPP administration, OMCs failed to pay the Tema Oil Refinery, resulting in premix fuel shortages.
He said the NDC government had engaged with OMCs and ensured they started paying the incurred costs, which has led to the stabilization of premix fuel supply across the country, including in the Krachi East constituency.
Djabab made these remarks during his thank-you tour of the constituency to express gratitude to residents who voted for him and President Mahama in the 2024 Election.
The legislator said the NDC government would prioritize the construction of a Municipal Hospital for the constituency, citing the current lack of healthcare facilities as a major concern. He revealed that the NDC government, led by President John Dramani Mahama, would work to address this issue.
Safo Nketia, the Municipal Chief Executive (MCE), expressed his gratitude to community members for the warm reception they received during their engagement.
He highlighted the collaborative efforts between himself and the MP to drive development in Krachi East.
Residents of Kpogede, a fishing community in Krachi East, appealed to the MP to renovate their school and upgrade the Cement-Kpogede-Asizakpe road. The appeal was made by Ever Jepeh, Madam Mary Tepeakor, and other community members after engaging with the MP.
