You Can’t Deceive us Again; Constituents Tell Wa East MP

According to Dankarama Boi, a fish trader, the lack of electricity is retarding development in the area.

She stressed that, though there is teachers quarters, teachers are not staying there, children cannot study at night due to lack of electricity and it is affecting the quality of education.

She added “we were deceived to wire our rooms, that we will be connected to the National grid. I even bought a deep freezer for my fish business but all that investment is going to waste. Are we part of the Wa East District at all?” She quizzed.

The complaints were not different from Guo, Kataar,Tafali and Gunuo as they are tired of the state of insecurity problems experienced  in the area due to bad roads and lack of electricity.

On his part, the Assembly Member for the area Mahama Jackalia told Radio Waa 92.1FM that, all the political leaders in the Wa East District are aware of the challenges faced by the Bayiri Zone, but only use them as a bet to campaign for political power but after they win power they do not show up again. “As an assembly member I do not have the financial muscle to solve them, the only thing I can do is to continue lobbing for support”.

The assembly member seized the opportunity to appeal to the government, NGO’s and philanthropists to come to their aid.

Meanwhile, speaking to Radio Waa off record, the Member of Parliament for the Wa East constituency, Godfred Bayon Tangu confirm that, he has indeed promise the people of Bayiri that within his six months in office, the community will be connected to the national grid during his 2016 campaign.

The MP appealed to the people to exercise patience because he has been bedridden and had to go through surgery to enable him walk. “Thank God now I am walking with a walking stick, so they should bear with me I will fix the light problem soon” he stated.

However the District Chief Executive for the area, Jotie Moses will not comment on the issue.
