The Member of Parliament for Tano North, Dr Gideon Boako, has pledged GH¢10,000 to support TanoFest, a community-focused programme organised by the Tano North District Assembly.
Dr Boako made the pledge on Monday during a District Assembly meeting, where discussions focused on community development initiatives and strategies to promote culture, talent, and social cohesion within the district.
In his remarks, the MP commended the Assembly for initiating TanoFest, describing it as a timely and impactful platform that aligns with the broader vision of inclusive development for Tano North.
“Festivals and community programmes such as TanoFest play a critical role in uncovering local talent, fostering unity, and providing opportunities for young people to showcase their abilities,” he said, noting that his contribution is intended to complement the Assembly’s efforts and encourage support from other stakeholders, including corporate bodies and private individuals.
Members of the Assembly expressed deep appreciation for the MP’s farm inputs and GH¢10,000 cash donation, describing it as the first time a Member of Parliament has provided such timely and impactful support.
Dr Boako’s pledge underscores the importance of collaboration between elected leaders and local government structures in driving grassroots development and delivering meaningful impact to communities.
