The struggles faced by many citizens are closely tied to the disappointing performance of Members of Parliament (MPs) and regrettably, a significant portion of MPs seems to lose sight of their primary duty—to serve as the voice and advocate for the people who entrusted them with their votes.

Once within the corridors of Parliament, the collective memory of their constituents often fades, overshadowed by personal ambitions and political maneuvering.

They spend valuable time engaging in irrelevant political maneuvers. Additionally, the lack of commitment to extensive reading and research leaves them ill-prepared with the knowledge needed for effective governance.

Moreover, there is a noticeable absence of the passion or determination needed to champion for services and resources for their constituencies.

This is where the commendable efforts of Sunday Chanda shine through. Unlike many others, Chanda actively works to secure the services and resources that would benefit the people he represents in Kanchibiya constituency.
