The Chief of the Gambibgo Traditional Area, Naba Sayeed Akolmolga Anon-Egra Sadik, has appealed to government and development partners to urgently address critical infrastructure challenges confronting the community.
The chief says inadequate access to potable water, overcrowding at the local primary school and poor road conditions continue to affect residents, calling for targeted interventions to improve living conditions and support community development.
Speaking on the development needs of the area, Naba Sadik said some parts of Gambibgo remain without access to safe drinking water, urging authorities to prioritise the expansion of water supply infrastructure.
He also expressed concern about the growing enrolment at Gambibgo Primary School, saying the existing classroom facilities are inadequate to accommodate the increasing number of pupils.
The chief is consequently appealing for the construction of an additional classroom block to ease overcrowding and provide a more conducive environment for teaching and learning.
Beyond education and water supply, he called for improvements to the community’s road network and the installation of streetlights to enhance accessibility and public safety.
Naba Sadik further identified the rehabilitation of the Gambibgo Dam as a priority, explaining that the facility plays an important role in supporting agricultural activities, particularly during the dry season.
He said restoring the dam would improve water storage, enable farmers to sustain dry-season farming and strengthen food production and household livelihoods.
The chief is urging government, the district assembly and development partners to consider the community’s concerns and support the provision of the needed infrastructure.
