The Assemblyman commended the people of Wurunia for their unity and dedication, emphasizing that their shared efforts reflect the belief that unity is power.

He explained that the project was initiated by the community in response to the urgent need for a nearby health facility, and despite limited resources, residents have remained determined to see it through.
The Assembly Member used the occasion to appeal to stakeholders, benevolent individuals, non-governmental organizations, and government agencies to support the project with building materials, financial assistance, and other logistical support.
According to him, completing the CHPS compound will not only improve healthcare delivery but also enhance the overall well-being of the community.
Community members expressed optimism that with continued unity and external support, the project will soon be completed to serve the health needs of Wurunia and surrounding areas.
