Jama, (Savannah), May 26, GNA – Nnaa Professor Lanjargo Karley II, the Paramount Chief of the Jama Traditional Area in the Bole-Bamboi District of the Savannah Region has appealed President John Dramani Mahama to carve out a separate District for Bamboi.
He said it was always difficult to travel several kilometres from Bamboi to Bole, the District capital, to access essential services.
Addressing a news conference at Jama in the District, Nnaa Prof Karley II, said Bamboi and its surrounding communities lagged in development, saying the creation of Bamboi as a separate district would facilitate the rapid development of the area.
He expressed concern about poor roads connecting farming communities and inadequate educational and health facilities too.
Nnaa Prof Karley II said with a separate district, the people could easily access healthcare and other essential services to improve their lives, saying that would further push economic growth and development.
“We will equally benefit from the sharing of the national cake and thereby see a remarkable improvement in socio-economic lives,” the Paramount Chief stated.
