The Member of Parliament (MP) for Paga Constituency, Leo Kaba, has declared his intention to serve another term of office to pursue his developmental agenda set for his constituents. To this effect, Mr. Kaba, who has already served his second term in office under the ticket of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has filed his nomination to contest for the party’s upcoming primaries. Speaking to Radio Ghana at Paga, the MP expressed his determination to outwit his two contesting bodies in the race and promised to give them a good run for their money by matching them boot for boot. He was sure of holding on to the baton and urged his people to rally behind him to succeed. According to him the Paga constituency since his assumption of office, has witnessed a number of developments that stretches from education, health, sports and the infrastructure among other amenities, stressing that, his outfit is poised of pursuing such developments to the latter. Mr. Kaba therefore appealed to his constituents to maintain the healthy political atmosphere in the area and support him, live up to expectation. To him, development cannot strive when there is chaos, anarchy, division and backbiting and therefore reiterated his call for the maintenance of peace in the area. He also called on the rank and file of the party, particularly, party executives to desist from all forms of divisive tendencies and iron out their differences for the sake of the party, which he said is determined to wrestle power from the incumbent come 2012. Internal party wrangling, he noted, has the tendency of creating disunity among party members, hence, the need to fashion out remedies in settling such situations and not resort to negativities that has the edge for opponents to take advantage of. Touching on developments under his reign, Mr. Kaba, said his outfit with support of his constituents, is committed to enhancing the level of education in the Paga constituency and pledged to ensure the speedy completion of ongoing school projects to increase school enrolment. Additionally, all schools under trees would soon be a thing of the past and assured the people of working tirelessly to that effect. A number of schools and libraries he said would be provided for his people in due time. He described education as the panacea for development and urged parents to make education of their ward their topmost priority. Mr Kaba said measures are being put in place to provide market sheds for the various communities and mentioned the Kayoro and Sirigu Market as some of the beneficiaries. He explained that the provision of the market sheds would help improve the revenue mobilization process of the district and also help improve the livelihood of the people, particularly market women. Mr Kaba also pldged to enhance the health service delivery in the area by providing OPD structures among other workable tools for the health facilities. He also expressed his willingness to lighten up the area with street lights and hook up most deprived communities to the national grid. Mr. Kaba later disclosed his intention to promote sports in his constituency and urged the youth to develop interest in sports to help unearth their inherent talents for development. He encouraged his people, particularly; party members to remain focus and united at all times to ensure peace and development. Mr Kaba assured the people of more developmental projects if given the nod to serve another term. Some party executives who later spoke to Radio Ghana expressed their party’s determination of recapturing power in the next elections since the people are impressed with the level of development under the administration of the MP.
