Residents of the Sissala East Municipality of the Upper West Region have­appealed to the government to fix the Tu­mu-Sakai-Walembelleroad. They want government through its recent District Road Improvement Programme to pro­vide the Municipality with a good road network to boost socio-eco­nomic development. In an interview with the Ghana­ian Times on Tuesday, some of the residents expressed frustration over the continual neglect of the area by successive governments. They highlighted that move­ment on the roads were ex­tremely dangerous, especially as it becomes slippery and muddy during the raining season. A community leader at Sakai, Mr N-dian N-akul Hussein, said farming was the primary occupa­tion in the area, and farmers had to struggle to transport their produce to market on motorbikes instead of vehicles due to the poor nature of the road network.
