Some residents who spoke to the GNA at Gambaga said they were happy with the pace of development in the Region, and indicated that the township roads had beautified the Region and eased their movements in the town. There were also ongoing World Bank and Government of Ghana funded programmes for the provision of sustainable rural water and sanitation for the Nalerigu and Gambaga townships. Our people walk miles to fetch water from streams so this water project has come at the right time,” Mr Haruna Ibrahim, a resident, said. Mr Abdul-Nashir said the project had a solar power component to support electricity supply from the national grid.
