A total of 1,248 motorbikes have been handed over to all thirty-three (33) Municipal and District Chief Executives in Eastern Region for onward distribution to assembly members.
The superstar motorbikes procured and supplied by JSA logistics Gh Ltd are expected to enhance the work of Assembly members in their electoral area to enhance local governance.
The Eastern Regional Minister Seth Kwame Acheampong presenting the motorbikes called for judicious use and regular maintenance to ensure longevity.
Receiving the motorbikes on behalf of the assembly members, the Dean of Presiding members in the Eastern Region Michael Ahwireng thanked the government and promised to use the motorbikes for the intended purpose.
Assembly Members in the country have over the years being yearning for the distribution of motorbikes to enhance their work.
They decried the fact that motorbikes are mostly distributed to assembly members few months to leave office.
This they say, does not help to serve its purpose hence needs to be given during the first year of their tenure.
