The roofs of school buildings at Yorogo, Sokabisi, and the Zaare English and Arabic School have been refurbished, creating conducive learning environments. In Tindonsobiligo, children now have access to a newly constructed 3-unit KG school block, while building materials have been supplied to facilitate the construction of Yipala JHS and the rehabilitation of Atampuru Primary School. Recognizing the need for proper resources, he has also ensured that several schools in the constituency received much-needed desks, making classrooms more functional.
In his quest to promote a better quality of life, Hon. Adongo has turned his attention to water and sanitation. His efforts have brought clean and accessible water to many, marked by the successful drilling and handover of 77 boreholes across the constituency. Furthermore, his intervention in clearing refuse dumps in various communities underscores his dedication to enhancing sanitation and public health.
Safety and security are paramount, and Adongo has not overlooked this aspect either. The construction of a Police Post in Sherigo stands as a testament to his commitment to ensuring the safety of his constituents, providing them with the peace of mind they deserve.
Infrastructure development has also been a priority, with significant improvements made to the road network. Through the construction of culverts along the Sumbrungu-Kulbia road and Zaare West road, as well as the reshaping of inner roads in several communities, Hon. Adongo is enhancing connectivity and accessibility for the people of Bolgatanga Central.
Lastly, he remains steadfast in supporting the backbone of the constituency’s economy: the farmers. By dredging canals for irrigation and constructing grinding mills in various communities, he has fortified their ability to cultivate and process their produce, empowering them to thrive.
