THE Lawra District Assembly in the Upper West Region is to put in place strategies to seal all loopholes in its revenue mobilisation.
Among the strategies is the recruitment of students on vacation to collect revenues at the various markets in the district.
The new District Chief Executive (DCE), Mr Samson Abu, disclosed this to the Daily Graphic in Wa.
He observed that the district could raise a lot of revenue, only if the revenue collectors were sincere in the performance of their duties.
“We will, therefore, work hard to ensure that all factors militating against our revenue mobilisation are nipped in the bud,” Mr Abu added.
Mr Abu stressed the need for unity in the district to ensure the speedy development of the area.
“All stakeholders will be brought on board for them to bring their expertise to be tapped for the benefit of our people,” the DCE said.
He gave the assurance that the issue of education, health and agriculture would be tackled seriously, while the Kakube and Kobine festivals of Nandom and Lawra would be vigorously promoted.
Mr Abu, therefore, appealed for co-operation from the people in the district in order to make the area a showpiece in terms of development.
