Africa-Press – Ghana. Old Bakanta (W/R), Feb. 20- Nana Aka Nwoza III, the Chief of Old and New Bakanta, has appealed to the Government and oil and gas companies in the Ellembelle District of the Western Region to help fix the deplorable roads there to facilitate economic activities.
The road linking Old and New Bakanta as well as Old Bakanta-Sanzule roads were in a bad state, which was affecting the socio-economic life of the people, he said.
Nana Nwoza expressed these sentiments in an interview with the Ghana News Agency at Aakonu (Old Bakanta) during a visit to assess the developmental challenges of communities around River Amanzule.
He described the situation as worrisome as primary school children from the old town had to walk many kilometers before crossing the river to attend the Junior High School at New Bakanta.
He said transportation to and from the town was also difficult as motorists were reluctant to ply the route due to the poor nature of the road. Nana Nwoza called on government and stakeholders to help construct the road to improve the livelihoods of the people.
