News about the sod cutting by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo on November 29, 2019 to commence the construction of the Pwalugu Multipurpose Irrigation Dam Project (PMIDP) in the Upper East Region was more than welcomed.
The euphoria, fulfilment and hope that engulfed the people was overwhelmingly great and filled the lips of the sons and daughters of the Upper East, North East, Northern and the Savannah regions with praise.
The people of the Upper East Region have for a long time been at the mercy of the man-made annual ritual of deaths and destruction of property, including farmlands and animals as a result of the release of water from the Bagre dam in neighbouring Burkina Faso.
