Kanapang was among one of the hinterland communities visited by Croal at the weekend. The purpose of the visit was to commission water supply systems in the villages.
But before this was done, Croal met and interacted with the residents. And coming out of concerns raised, suggestions were made on how the issues can be rectified.
“We have assessed what is needed in all the villages. For example, this village (Kanapang)…you are seeing a lot of infrastructure work happening and that is because more resources are being pumped into the villages for us to ensure that as quickly as possible we all have facilities that require us not moving onto other locations but to get the service in our villages,” Croal explained.
He added, “The services that is being provided by your country is for all of the citizens including you here, never mind you are on the border, you deserve similar services.”
Since assuming office, the government has been investing significantly in the country’s hinterland regions to improve the livelihood of the residents.
