He asked that “these motorbikes are not there just for show, they are for you to go into your communities, meet your community members, and find out what their problems are and let us work extremely hard to help our people he advised.

Meanwhile, two motorbikes were also presented to the Sissala West district directorate of the Ghana health service and GHC6,000 to cater for the accommodation of ten nurses in Gwollu.

Some of the assembly members expressed gratitude and assured to use the bikes to facilitate the development of their respective electoral areas and for that matter Sissala West district.
