The New Patriotic Party (NPP) in Pusiga Constituency has urged the completion of the Agenda 111 district hospital, deeming healthcare and road infrastructure crucial over a proposed 24-hour market. Sumaila Jafaru, the constituency’s Communications Officer, highlighted concerns over misplaced development priorities, noting the hospital project remains 70% complete and inner roads in Pusiga, Widana, and Kulungungu are in deplorable condition.
Speaking at a press conference, Mr. Jafaru questioned the logic of constructing a new market while a key healthcare project remains incomplete. He criticized the demolition and relocation of the old Pusiga market, claiming the new one has less capacity and forced some traders to build their own sheds. Mr. Jafaru further expressed concerns about the market's location within a residential area.
The NPP Communications Officer maintained that the party is not against market development but emphasized completing the hospital and improving roads would offer more immediate benefits to residents. He stressed the need for projects that address urgent needs and yield tangible results, appealing to President John Dramani Mahama and Pusiga’s Member of Parliament, Hajia Lardi Ayii Ayamba, to prioritize healthcare and road improvements.
