President John Dramani Mahama announced funding for water projects in Tamale, Damongo, and Yendi, with work set to commence soon. This news came on October 19 when the Regent of the Dagbon Kingdom visited Mahama. The Minister of Finance secured the EU funding during meetings with the European Union. Mahama also announced a temporary solution to boost water supply to Tamale.
The government replaced old pumps at the existing water works, which should start working in November, providing additional water before the EU project. This funding is part of the Northern Ghana Water and Sanitation Project, which aims to improve water supply and sanitation in Tamale, Yendi, and Damongo. The project has a €98 million grant and a €225 million concessional financing facility from the European Investment Bank. These projects will enhance access to reliable water services in the beneficiary communities.
