The Vice President and the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has provided compelling evidence of road infrastructure undertaken in the Tatale/Sanguli constituency of the Northern Region, affirming that the ruling government has delivered on its promises to the people.

“When I came here to campaign in 2020, I promised you that if you give me and the NPP the mandate, we will fix this very important road linking Tatale to Yendi and Tamale. Today, you can all see the extensive work done on this road. 167 km of road is almost completed.

"The contractor tells me he will be done in two months. This is the longest road constructed by this government. So, you can see that even as Vice President, I have fulfilled the promise I made to you. When you make me President, you can be confident that I will fulfill my promises to you.”

These were the words of the NPP flagbearer, Dr. Bawumia, while speaking at a community engagement in Tatale in the Tatale/Sanguli constituency of the Northern Region over the weekend.

Dr. Bawumia said the NPP government, of which he is the Vice President, has worked very hard to fulfill the promises they made to the people of the Tatale/Sanguli constituency and that if he is given the mandate as President on December 7, he would work even harder to do more.

“When we came into office in 2017, only 17 communities in Tatale/Sanguli had been connected to the national electricity grid. Today, in just eight years, we now have 44 communities connected to the grid.


"Before the end of the year, 15 more will be added,” he assured the gathering.

“We are addressing the water challenge in your area. So far, we have sunk 175 boreholes in various communities in the constituency, with more in the offing. There will be an Agenda 111 hospital in Tatale/Sanguli.

"We are expanding access to agricultural inputs, healthcare, and education as well."

Dr. Bawumia urged the people to maintain their faith in him and the NPP in the 2024 elections, noting that the party has demonstrated its commitment to the development of the constituency.

“We are addressing the challenges that have bedeviled the people of this constituency. If you look at the body of work we have done in Tatale/Sanguli, you can clearly see that I have brought more development to Tatale/Sanguli as Vice President than my main opponent, John Mahama when he was Vice President and President,” Dr. Bawumia declared.

“Under John Mahama, the north went backwards, but under Nana Akufo-Addo and Dr. Bawumia, the north has seen massive development. With me as President, you will witness even more,” he pledged.
