‘Wa road has always been bad since I was born’ — Ameer of Ahmadiyya Muslim Mission laments
The Ameer and Missionary-in-Charge of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Mission Ghana, Alhaji Maulvi Noor Mohammed Bin Salih, has used a personal experience to highlight the longstanding poor condition of roads leading to Wa, saying the situation has persisted for as long as he can remember.
Alhaji Maulvi Noor Mohammed Bin Salih, the Ameer and Missionary-in-Charge of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Mission in Ghana, has expressed his long-standing frustration with the poor condition of roads leading to the city of Wa. Speaking at the Majlis Ansarullah (Elders) of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in Nasrat Jahan, Bin Salih lamented that the road situation has persisted as long as he can remember.
He recounted a conversation he once had with someone in Accra who claimed that Wa's roads were the worst, but disagreed, stating that the Kumasi road was far worse. His perspective changed when his young son questioned the state of the road, with Bin Salih responding that since his birth, the road had always been in this poor state.
Bin Salih's comments echo the longstanding concerns about road infrastructure in the Upper West Region, where residents and stakeholders have repeatedly called for improvements to key routes. The road network is crucial for facilitating movement and commerce in the region. Despite the challenges, Bin Salih expressed optimism about Ghana's future, crediting the Ahmadiyya Community's efforts for giving him hope.
He reminded the elders of their broader responsibilities, stating that the future of the country rests in their hands.
