NDC government will not neglect any community

Mr. Adam Yussif, the District Chief Executive for West Mamprusi, has said the National Democratic Congress (NDC) government would never neglect or abandon any community perceived not to be sympathetic to the Party.

He said NDC under the leadership of President John Dramani Mahama was a government for all and not just for a section of Ghanaians public and called for support for the government.

Mr. Yussif told the GNA in an interview, in Tamale that some people, especially those in the West Mamprusi District, were throwing their arms up in despair with the false impression that development was eluding the district due to the fact that the NDC lost the Parliamentary seat in the area.

He said NDC was a government that had the interest of the people at heart and would continue to invest in them to ensure that poverty, disease and illiteracy were addressed.

Mr. Yussif said detractors of the government were refusing to see or acknowledge the infrastructure development springing up across the country with West Mamprusi not exempted saying, “It is not possible that any government would deliberately refuse to provide any community with development.”

He said the West Mamprusi District had benefitted from the government the district, having been divided into two in 2012 to speed up development and has since opened a senior secondary school in Yagba and built 12 structures there for the school.

Mr. Yussif mentioned the rehabilitation of clinics and health centres and that the Kwasenkpe Health Centre had been upgraded and had a standby ambulance for referral cases.

Mr. Yussif said the District had also constructed three CHPS compounds at Duo, Timburi and Nabari communities and that the assembly had rehabilitated a 10-unit classroom block at Nabari and rehabilitated another six-classroom block and a teacher’s quarters at Sariba.

He said there were street lights along the major towns of Walewale and the Nasia highways so as to fight highway crime. He also gave the assurance that the district would continue to embark on the development drive to ensure alleviation of poverty.
