At the opening of a church in remote Angesi Village in Angoram District of East Sepik Province, communities living along the Keram River where challenged by their local member of Parliament to change their mind-sets.
MP Salio Waipo grew up in Angesi. He was there to witness the opening of the new Church of Christ building. He challenged youths to turn away from homebrew and marijuana and not be lazy, but to look to church principles to guide them in life.
Waipo presented K10, 000 to the church in support of its community activities in Angesi.
Angesi is located along the Keram River. It is inaccessible by road. The only two modes of transport into Angesi are by river and air.
Waipo was ferried by Heli Solutions into Angesi, to a rousing welcome by the community.
