A group calling itself Alliance for Change in the Upper West Region has been exposed for allegedly peddling falsehood about the Member for Nadowli West, Hon. Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin, to the effect that, he has presided over non development of his constituency.

Reliable sources have alleged that, one of the chiefs of Sankama, is the brain behind the move to whip up negative sentiments against the Nadowli West MP, who doubles as the Minister of Health, with the purpose of tarnishing his hard won reputation.

Indications from the constituency point to the fact that, the allegation is a blatant falsehood being paraded by some people who wish to manipulate the coming elections to overthrow the Member of Parliament in order to perpetrate their own selfish interests.

They told The New Independent that, the health minister has also upgraded a health facility from a clinic to a major hospital, which now serves both the Nadowli East surrounding communities, reducing the inconvenience of having to transport sick constituents to the regional capital for treatment.

In the education sector, aside government's assistance to the constituency, though the MP's personal support, students in the constituency can now further their education in various training colleges.

Under the auspices of the MP for Nandowli West, over 200 individuals have been supported to the tertiary institutions to improve their education in the Upper West.

Currently, The New Independent has learnt, a 12 classroom block is being built for the Kaleo Secondary Technical School at Kaleo, one of the towns in the constituency, as well as a library for the school through his personal efforts as the MP for Nandowli West.
