The Chief of Kamanpa Traditional Area in the Pru District of the Brong Ahafo Region Nana Kwame Wande II has barred politicians from doing campaign in his community especially in 2016 which is an election year.

According to Nana Kwame Wande II they are not seeing the better Ghana that President John Mahama and his government are taunting as transforming the lives of Ghanaians.

Nana Wande II noted that the community lacks basic amenities including roads and school infrastructure. Pupils have to lie on the floor in school to write this he said is affecting teaching and learning in the community.

Nana Wande revealed that through the community’s own effort they have built a CHPS Compound and have asked the Pru District Assembly to build a bungalow to facilitate the sending of a midwife to the community but to no avail.

Apart from this the road to the community is in a deplorable state, foodstuff from the community always rotting on their farms.

He declared that no politician should step foot in the community to campaign for votes because they have been neglected.

“We have now seen that we are not part of Ghana so we are saying that no politician should step foot here to do campaign especially next year being an election year because we have being neglected we are not going to vote,” Nana Wande II stated.

Efforts to get the District Chief Executive for Pru, Emmanuel Kwame Opoku to get his opinion on the issue were not successful as his phone was off.
