Mahama Ayariga sinks 42 boreholes for residents of Bawku Central

Thirty-two communities that have been thirsty for water for decades have now heaved a sigh of relieve following intervention by the Member of Parliament for Bawku Central, Mahama Ayariga.

The MP drilled and handed over forty-two boreholes to thirty-two communities. For years, residents in adjoining communities in the Bawku Central Constituency have been without potable source of water.

Open polluted wells and dams are sources that supply indigenes with water, but the woes of residents aggravates when these water sources dry up in the dry season.

Health facilities and households suffer the impact of the water shortage. The boreholes funded by the MP’s Common Fund therefore come in timely.

A brief ceremony was held to commission the 42 boreholes.

Mahama Ayariga, who is seeking re-election is confident that the boreholes will go a long way to relieve residents, most especially women and children who trek several kilometers in search of good drinking water.

He said the water projects were constructed within 5 months.

The MP has meanwhile also spearheaded the lobbying and execution of other projects including roads, schools, rural electrification among others in his constituency.
