J.A. Plant Pool Ghana Limited,dealers in heavy duty equipment, has handed over a tipper truck worth GH¢205,000 to the Wa West District Assembly at a ceremony at Wechiau, the district capital.
The truck, which is on a hire purchase over a period of three years, forms part of the assembly's efforts at increasing revenue.
In a brief address, the Deputy Upper West Regional Minister, Mr Caesar Kale, said the truck was not for free, and therefore, entreated the assembly members to help in using it to raise more revenue.
"I will like to also call on contractors in the district to patronise the services of the truck to ensure its maximum use", he added.
Mr Kale appealed to the company to also go into the supply of agricultural tractors to support farmers in the region.
He suggested that a committee should be formed to manage the facility.
For his part, the District Chief Executive, Mr Seed Tungbani, said the assembly conceived the idea of purchasing the truck last year.
A representative of J/A Plant Pool, who is also the Upper West Regional Supervisor of Zoomlion Ghana Limited, Mr Emmanuel Volsuuri, said the company had introduced an innovative special pre-finance support package to Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies (MMDAs).
