Member of Parliament for Jomoro Constituency of the Western Region, Mr. Paul Essien has pledged his commitment to honour over 2000 'committed' workers in his Constituency.
The award ceremony which is slated for May 1st, 2018, under the theme, "2017 Hardworking Unprecedented Personality Award" will bring all chiefs and people of the area together to witness the glorious occasion.
The move forms part of the MP's 2016 campaign manifesto to reward the efforts of hardworking employees whose selfless contributions have made great impact in the development of the District.
Speaking to GhanaWeb's Western Regional Correspondent, the Jomoro Lawmaker who is also the Deputy Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs Minister indicated that the maiden award is to motivate all civil service workers to work assiduously to develop the Constituency.
He mentioned that "this is to motivate all civil service workers and draw their attention that everything they are doing we are watching and will award them when the time comes".
According to him, the award is not going to be a nine-day wonder but would be organised annually.

"We shouldn't just celebrate May Day every year just like that but we should award our deserving and hardworking workers", he noted.
He further disclosed that the ceremony was going to attract the presence of some government appointees and members of key members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
"Personalities such as Hon. Adwoa Sarfo, Hon. Kennedy Agyapong, Education Minister, Deputy Labour Minister, John Boadu, Sammy Awuku and other personalities would be in attendance", he revealed.
