He also thanked the NPP Parliamentary Candidate for lobbying for the project saying, the Assembly together with the paramount chief of the Builsa Traditional area tried to get a tertiary institution to the Builsa traditional area but have been unsuccessful and that the coming of the project is very timely as Builsa’s have longed waited for one.
