Over 14 communities in the Jomoro constituency of the Western Region are benefiting from the reshaping of their deplorable roads by the Member of Parliament, Dorcas Affo-Toffey.
The move, according to the MP, is to make the four-kilometer road accessible for commuters.
All these communities are farming areas but due to their deplorable roads, their farm produce always go waste.
The communities are Asempanaye, New Kabenlasuazo, Nawule, Bonyere, Ezinlibo, Ndumsuazo and Takinta.
The rest are Old Kabenlasuazo, Egbazo, Edobo, Atwebanso, Adusuazo, Ekpu and Half Assini.
These communities are also the food baskets of that part of the region and also the nation as whole.
They produce cocoa and other food crops
The worse of these all are the pregnant women and the sick who cannot ply the road to seek medical care.
The road has been like this for decades but constant calls on successive MPs and governments to reshape the road have proved futile
This was the nature of the road and even these tricycles and bicycles cannot commute on the road due to the deplorable nature.
Some of the inhabitants expressed shocked over the reshaping exercise by the MP since the roads have been there for decades. They explained that in just her first term in office, the MP has been able to make their roads motorable and therefore called on the constituents to vote for her.
