Former Member of Parliament for Binduri Robert Baba Kuganab-Lem has said, one of the reasons why he couldn’t achieve most of his developmental projects in his constituency was a result of the DCE’s no approval of his MP’s Common Fund. Apexnewsgh.com report

Dr. Kuganab-lem made the interesting revelation on Dreamz FM Bolgatanga monitored by Apexnewsgh.com

He said : “I was not able to use my Common Fund because the DCE refused to approve them and immediately I left, they were using that money and I couldn’t get it because I was out” He explained

“So, there was a deliberate attempt to strangulate me and not allow me to perform. That is Ghana and that’s our mentality that a statutory fund allocated to the MP, the MP’s project will not be approved because he is in opposition”.

However, despite all the hindrance by the District Chief Executive, He was able to get Japan Cooperation to come to Binduri to do about 27 mechanized boreholes for clinics.

The former NDC MP served only 4 years in Parliament and was voted out by his people in replacement with the current Deputy Minister for Ministry of Works and Housing Abdulai Abanga. Binduri is the only seat the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) is occupying in the region.
