Residents of Adinkrom in the Birim South district of Eastern region have lamented about lack of social amenities such as; portable drinking water, healthcenter, JHS school building, access to good roads that make life uncomfortable in the community and therefore called on government’s intervention asap.
According to residents of Adinkrom who spoke with the media, the community has been deprived of Junior High School of which the children have to journey miles to continue in other towns after primary 6, which the parents are not comfortable with because their wards are not old enough to journey long miles everyday for school and in turn become truants.
They also lamented about their poor roads that they carry sick people on to other communities for healthcare because they do not have access to any health center.
In addition to these basic necessities, they added that the community is very large now but only have one borehole water that supplies the entire community which is very terrible especially during dry season.
They have therefore called on government to attend to them asap because they are also voters and have every right to enjoy these basic amenities they are lacking now.
The assembly member for Adinkrom electoral area Kofi Okyere, also added his voice and called on government to attend to them because the community is very large but lacks basic amenities as the residents lamented.
