GOVERNMENT has donated a new fogging machine to Akawini Village Council in lower Pomeroon.

Region Two (Pomeroon/Supenaam) Vice-Chairman, Mr. Vishnu Samaroo, who handed it over, said the Ministry of Agriculture recognised the need for it and farmers in the Bara Cara area would also benefit from controlling Acoushi ants and mosquitoes which spread malaria.

Toshao David Wilson, who received the gift on behalf of the Village Council, was very thankful and promised to care it for community use.
