Mr Stephen Asamoah-Boateng, Member of Parliament for Mfantseman West, has provided six giant screen boards with projectors to six communities in his constituency to enable the people to watch the on-going Africa Cup of Nations Football tournament live.
The MP, who is the Minister of Tourism and Diaspora Relations, has also donated 15 television sets to towns with community centres for the same purpose.
Briefing the Ghana News Agency (GNA) at Mankessim after erecting the screens, Mr George Mireku Duker, NPP Assistant Secretary in the constituency, said Mr Asamoah-Boateng's gesture was to save people who did not have television sets from paying money to watch the matches at individual homes, cinema or video centres.
Mr Duker, who is also Special Assistant to the Minister of Local Government, Rural Development and Environment commended the MP for organizing an end-of -year get-together for the party's executives at Anomabo, during which he presented gifts including wax prints to the executives.
He said the rehabilitation work on the roads of the principal towns in the constituency was on course and urged the executives to monitor the work of the contractors.
Mr Felix Nyarko-Antwi, Constituency Vice-Chairman of the Party appealed to the Electricity Company of Ghana to ensure that power was not disrupted to enable the people to make good use of the facilities provided by the MP for the tournament.
He said the MP had expressed the desire to contest the 2008 parliamentary election and urged them to give him the necessary support since he had done a lot to improve the lot of the people during his first term in Parliament.Source: GNA
