Today, we are fulfilling those requests,\u201d Rep. Womba stated.<\/p>\n<p>The projects include the construction of a youth center, a guest house, and a modern clean water facility.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, the water system complete with a tower, pump, and supporting infrastructure, cost about US$10,000, while the youth center and guest house were valued at US$20,000 and US$16,000 respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond buildings, the initiative also focused on improving rural access through the clearing and rehabilitation of farm-to-market roads. T<\/p>\n<p>Rep. Womba noted that heavy equipment has already been deployed across several routes, including connections between Bellafania and Jaka, Naama and other surrounding communities. Additional roads serving villages near the district border with Guinea were also highlighted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese roads are critical for our farmers and local trade,\u201d the lawmaker said, emphasizing their role in boosting economic activity and mobility across the district.<\/p>\n<p>He claimed of personal financial sacrifice to fund some of the projects, stressing that instead of purchasing a new official vehicle, he redirected approximately US$45,000 toward development efforts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy people see others buying new cars, but I chose to use that money for them. It would be a disservice to the people who entrusted me with leadership to spend it on luxury.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Speaking further, Rep. Womba expressed optimism about the district\u2019s future, citing ongoing collaboration with county leadership and plans for additional project dedications in the nearest.<\/p>\n<p>The lawmaker also fulfilled a promise of L$500,000.00 to the people of Naama made during the 2023 Presidential and Legislative Elections. Rep. Womba had promise half a million Liberian Dollars to the people if they voted President Joseph Nyuma Boakai, and even if he didn\u2019t win his own seat.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDuring the elections, I promised you that if you give me Boakai I will offer you a half a million Liberian Dollar even if I had lost my own seat. And from the records of count, you indeed, voted him overwhelmingly. So, after two years, I am here to fulfil my obligation to you,\u201d declared Rep. Womba as he openly presented the cash to the town\u2019s leadership.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking during the tour, Bong County Senator, Prince K. Moye hailed his fellow Unity Party lawmaker for the \u2018impact-driven\u2019 projects in the district.<\/p>\n<p>Senator Moye described the UP Legislative Caucus\u2019 Chair as a responsible leader who is always there for his people.<\/p>\n<p>Like Senator Moye, local leaders including town and clan chiefs, district commissioners and women leaders, among others, most of whom spoke in their local Kpelleh vernacular, extolled their lawmaker for his invaluable services to them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Liberia<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Liberia.
