The MP also asked Nana Botwe, Swedruhene, who received the items, to give part of it to other victims in the Gomoa East.
He said the problems facing the displaced persons could be solved by the collaborative efforts of government, organizations and individuals.
The MP appealed to well-to-do people in the country and foreign philanthropists to go to the aid of the affected persons.
Nana Asiedu Kobina Botwe II, Swedruhene, expressed appreciation to Mr Agyapong and Ken City Ghana Limited for the kind gesture and appealed to Ghanaians to assist the displaced persons.

He also thanked the MP for keeping his promise to return to assist them after donating 50 bags of rice, 30 boxes of cooking oil and 20 bags of sugar to the displaced persons at Agona Swedru, Nyakrom and urged others to learn from his example.
