“Beyond this, we have worked to improve the health sector, and also secure the lives and properties of our people with the provision of patrol vehicles for our security men.
“We know the challenges and with the joint efforts of all stakeholders, we will overcome them.
“I congratulate our people as we celebrate the 30 years existence of our local government,” he said.
