Bole: Nnaa Professor Lanjargo Karley II, the Paramount Chief of the Jama Traditional Area in the Bole-Bamboi District of the Savannah Region, has appealed to President John Dramani Mahama to carve out a separate district for Bamboi. He highlighted the challenges faced by residents who have to travel several kilometers from Bamboi to Bole, the district capital, to access essential services.

According to Ghana News Agency, Nnaa Prof Karley II addressed a news conference at Jama in the district, emphasizing that Bamboi and its surrounding communities are lagging in development. He stated that the creation of Bamboi as a separate district would facilitate the rapid development of the area, addressing concerns such as poor roads connecting farming communities and inadequate educational and health facilities.

Nnaa Prof Karley II further noted that with a separate district, residents could more easily access healthcare and other essential services, improving their quality of life and driving economic growth and development. He expressed optimism that the new district would allow the community to benefit more from national resources, leading to a significant improvement in their socio-economic conditions.
