MORE than 3,000 people of Hozafaga ward four council in Henganofi district, Eastern Highlands are lucky recipients of almost K2.5 million worth of equipment and support from their local MP Ferao Orimyo.

“I call on the people of Hozafaga to utilise these equipment to improve your standard of living, you will use the sawmill to mill timbers, build houses, connect electricity and have water supply.”
He urged the people to utilise them to reap maximum benefits.
He would continue to assist parents with partial school fees support.
