A member of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) Regional Communication Team Osman Kariyama has said, when it comes to providing community street lighting in the Bawku Municipality Madam Gabiana the 2020 NPP Parliamentary must take the credit and not Mahama Ayariga.
Mr. Kariyama made the point on Monday, October 10, 2022, on Apexnews Ghana’s flagship Programme dubbed: SPEAK OUT UPPER EAST” when the NDC representative Ibrahim Anaribazanga made a claim that the Bawku legislature Hon. Mahama Ayariga has provided streetlights across the Bawku Municipality.
Meanwhile, responding to the NDC claim, Mr. Kariyama said: “When you look at Bawku, is divided into 3 zones, just like Upper East is divided into 3 zones. We have the Bawku Zone, we have the BONABOTO zone, and the Western zone. Like Bawku is divided into 3 zones, we have the Central zone, we have the Kusasi zone and we have the Bissa belt”.
“At the Bissa belt, all the street lights there were put by Madam Gabiana. All the community lights in the Bissa belt were put by Madam Gabiana”. he stressed
And when you come to the Central zone, because they already have their street lights. So, for most of the street lights that went off, Madam Gabiana had to replace them. She replaced all the dead street lights and then, in the Kusasi zone whereby some of their light went off, we have Area Coordinators who came and she gave it to them and they went and replaced it. Where there is no street light, they replaced and where there is a street light they don’t replace it. And we did the distribution, we did all the work”. He explained
“So, if they say Mahama Ayariga has put street lights, probably he has gone somewhere or maybe some have gone dead and he went and put. But for that one, we were not aware of it because we know what we did during the 2020 election”. He said
