The Chief of Baare, Naab Nyaakora Mantii, has extended an appeal to the government and other developing partners operating in the Talensi District of the Upper East to assist them in providing 8-unit classrooms to Tongo Senior High School.

Chief Mantii made the productive call during his speech at the Daa festival which was held at his palace.

The Chief while addressing his subject also called for unity in his traditional area. According to him, without Unity, there will be no development in the area. “Let’s us stay together, forgive one another, and see how best we can put our heads together and develop the area”.

Naab Nyaakora Mantii, also extended calls to government and development partners operating in the Talensi Community to support them in getting an 18-unit classroom block for Tongo Senior High School which was established in 2014 by the people of the Talensi district and was later absorbed by the government in 2019.
“I am appealing to mining companies that are operating in this area”. He said

According to the Chief, the school is facing numerous challenges, but he believes the 18-unit block is more important for now.
He narrated how the school wasn’t able to admit lots of students because of a lack of classrooms, resulting in most of the students returning back.

However, the Baare Chief was very optimistic that with the help of the mining companies operating in the district, such a challenge might be a thing of the past.
Meanwhile, the theme for the 2023 Daa festival was dubbed BUILDING BAARE TOGETHER.
