Anthony Nyoh Abayifaa Karbo made the statement at the sod-cutting ceremony for the construction of a building for Zambo Girls Senior High School.
"The development that I have brought to this municipality, has nothing to do with supporters. I do not care where you come from, I do not care who voted for me, I do not care whether you support the NPP or NDC. All I care about is to develop this town, Lawra," he said.
The MP who is also the Deputy Minister of Roads and Highways said government over the last three years has initiated and completed several projects in the Lawra Municipality ranging from the drilling boreholes, constructing roads, building schools, and also facelifting some health institutions.
