By Josu Kim
Member for Gazelle, Jelta Wong has reminded elected Ward Members in this year’s LLG elections of their roles, which is to deliver services to the people.
Speaking at the declarations of the Central Gazelle, Inland Baining and Lassul Baining LLGs at Kerevat yesterday, he reminded the elected Ward Members to refrain from playing politics and fix up the wards first so people can realize delivery of services in the district.
While congratulating the elected Ward Members, Mr Wong says it will not be an easy run.
He says Ward Members will be voting in their new presidents at the LLG chambers in seven days’ time and further discouraged them from joining camps as this is where he says corruption begins.
The MP says all elected Ward Members must be present at the respective LLG chambers where intending presidents will lay out plans and policy for their respective LLGS so that all Ward Members can assess who they are voting for.
"We are trying to eliminate the politics at the ward level so that everyone has a fair chance to participate,” says Wong.
The Gazelle MP further says there is a need to equip Ward Members on how to write up project proposals, hence the Gazelle district administration will be tasked to run trainings in the wards for Ward Members.
