The development oriented MP unquestionably holds the view that empowering women is a strong pillar that propels community development in his constituency.

Dr. Apaak has always made women in his constituency a priority by supporting them both in cash and kind as part of his plans to building the Builsa South Constituency that he has always desired to.
Presenting the cash to the various groups on behalf of the Member of Parliament, the party’s constituency Chairman Mr Caesar Akinkang encouraged the women groups to use the money for the intended purposes as that will motivate the MP to always be ready to reach out to them anytime the need arises.
Chairman Caesar reiterated Dr. Clement Apaak’s preparedness to support the less privileged, women, and the youth to harness their potential in all spheres of their life.
The women groups were in jubilant moods when Chairman Caesar announced the cash amount to them and assured him of their readiness to retain Dr. Clement Apaak as their MP so that he can continue his good works.
