Babile resident to declare support to anyone who helps them

The chiefs and people of Babile, a community in the Lawra Municipality, say they will throw their weight behind any political party or individual who shows commitment to helping solve the myriad of challenges facing the community.

They said that the two main political parties, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the New Patriotic Party (NPP), have deceived them for far too long and the people of the community were not ready to fall prey to their deceit anymore.

The people, who said this in an interview with Info Radio at the community, indicated that the development of the community was stagnated by the indifferent attitude of the Lawra Municipal Assembly and the Member of Parliament (MP) for the area.

Mr Zola Dabuo, the Assembly Member of Babile Electoral Area, said the community was fraud with challenges in the areas of education, health and road which needed urgent attention.

A visit to the school revealed that some of school children were lying prostrate in the classrooms to receive academic instructions due to the inadequate number of furniture at the school.

Mr Dabuo indicated that some parents also provided furniture for their children in the upper primary and Junior High School (JHS) to help facilitate academic activities in the school.

Mr Vitus Dapilah Kadoe, the Regent of Babile, told Info Radio that both the MP, Mr Bede Ziedeng and the MCE, Mr Jacob Dery, were aware of the challenges in the community, especially the school but had “turned their blind sight to them.”
