Aspiring Assembly member donates benches to CHPS compound at Abunyanya

The Aspiring Assembly member for Abunyanya Electoral Area, Mr Alhasan Baba Abubakar, has presented 45 bench­es to the Community Health-Based Planning Services (CHPS) compound at Abunyanya in the Nkwanta-North District of the Oti Region, to support healthcare delivery in the area.

Mr Abubakar said the donation was in response to appeal by women in theAbunyanya community for benches for patients to sit on.

According to Mr Abubakar, patients, mostly women, sat on the floor anytime they visited the CHPS compound, a development which made the facility unattractive to patients.

A spokesperson of the Chief of Abunyan­ya, Mr Bijilah Vasco Bisun who received the benches including a cutlass, thanked Mr Abu­bakar on behalf of the Chief of Abunyanya, Ubor Bejila II for the gesture, which he said would definitely promote quality healthcare in the area.

Mr Bijilah asked the people to adopt the culture of maintenance to ensure that the benches would be kept and used for the in­tended purpose.
