President John Dramani Mahama has unveiled a fresh development blueprint targeting the Savannah Region, with a strong focus on education expansion and infrastructure growth.
Speaking at the 50th anniversary of the Gonjaland Youth Association in Buipe, the President outlined a series of interventions aimed at widening opportunities for young people and accelerating regional progress.
Central to the plan is a major push in education, including the establishment of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) schools in Tinga and Busunu, expansion of facilities in Senior High Schools and the elevation of selected Category B schools to Category A status.
“Education is the bridge between where we are and where we aspire to be,” he said, stressing the need for continuous investment in the sector.
On the infrastructure front, Mahama announced plans to construct a modern sports stadium for the region, alongside the rollout of 24-hour markets in every district to boost economic activity, create jobs and support local businesses.
