Member of Parliament for Binduri Constituency Abdulai Abanga has said, he will seek clarity on the controversial airport meant for the people of Upper East Region. Apexnewsgh.com report
His response came after the Navrongo Member of Parliament Mr. Sampson Tangombu Chiragia has criticized the government of the day for not considering the people of Upper East in what he described as NPP empty 2022 budget that could not even capture the airport which is one of the very important things for the people of the region.
Speaking in an interview with Apexnewsgh.com on Thursday, December 9, 2021, the Binduri legislator who is now known in the region as Member of Parliament (MP) for Upper East said, even though he has not much information about the airport as at the time of this interview, he promised to follow it up.
“I will take it up and try and find out what the situation is regarding the setting up of the airport in the region. You are aware that our senior brother late Hon. Kofi Adda, may he rest in perfect peace. They started the airport idea and he worked so hard and really wanted to see the airport fully established but it didn’t happen before his demise”.
“It will help all of us in the region and beyond in our transportation especially those of us coming from Upper East. Now we have to land in Tamale, drive 2,3,4 hours before we can get to our various destinations either to Bawku, Navrongo or to Sandema. So, definitely having the airport in any part of the region will give us an advantage and it will help us so much in our duties as MPs, as business people, and for the general public. So, I will also pick it up to find out what the thinking is and the policies with the government regarding that Airport”. He told Apexnewsgh.com
However, he was confident that the airport will be constructed once the government has already taken notice of it.
