Speaking to Citi News Frank Ano Dompreh noted that if funds were dispensed on time, the MP�s could carry out projects to help their constituents. �We want to take this opportunity to appeal to government that the GETFund and other funds that are supposed to be paid to Otherwise we can only appeal to corporate bodies and philanthropists to come in and help.� He noted that he was prepared "to take part of my salary to support the school project because it is very basic and key.� The MP added that: �It (Common Fund) has to be paid in time so that we can embark on the second action which would have an overall effect on the whole school otherwise these small inputs cannot have a lasting effect on the school.�
