Wain-Erap LLG

The hall, valued at K50,000 will host trainings and programs for the people of Nawaeb.

Nawaeb MP, Theo Pelgen, with Morobe Governor, Luther Akisawa Wenge, opened the new building at the Peter Ryan Memorial Primary School.

The school is located at Ward 18 of Wain-Erap and is the last area in the LLG that shares a border with Nabak LLG and Kabwum District, at the precincts of Saruwaged Range.

Pelgen said the community hall initiative will be rolled out to other wards and LLGs in Nawaeb with the aim to empower the people with life skills trainings.

Acting secretary of the Department of Provincial and Local-level Government Affairs, Joe Warus, said in collaboration with the Department of National Planning, they have allocated K1.5 million to fund those projects, which will include three staff houses as well.

“This came under our ‘District Town Improvement Program’. This money helps districts and towns. One of those we can see now is the building and power line that we brought in.
