Efforts are underway by the Sule Salifu led administration of the Metropolis to restore the street light and ultimately brighten the city of
Tamale.
Phase one of the ongoing efforts is increasingly making steady progress as repair works on the street lighting systems from Sara junction to TTH
stretch ;Alhassan Iddrisu storey building to Aboabo enclave as well as Zaamigu to Picona roads have been completed as of close of work today,18th
February, 2023.
Residents in the beneficiary areas could not hide their joy following the intervention. They commended the Mayor, Hon. Sule Salifu and indeed
management of the Tamale Metropolitan Assembly for the intervention. They however expressed concerns about poor maintenance culture regarding the country’s publicproperty and therefore appealed forroutine maintenance at regular intervals.
Responding to the concerns,Mayor Sule assured them of government’s commitment to executing value-for-money project interventions ,including maintenance of street light, for the benefit of the citizenry.
He however appealed to the people , particularly residents of the beneficiary communities to be conscious of their watchdog role as some people intentionally destroy the underground cablesand often get away with it sometimes at the full glare of residents.
