The former President and flag bearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has cut sod for the construction of a 500-seater modern sports facility for the youth and people of his home constituency, Bole-Bamboi, and its surrounding communities on Sunday.
The project which was facilitated by Member of Parliament for Bole, Alhaji Yusif Suleman, will contain a football pitch with changing rooms, volleyball and tennis courts and a swimming pool.
Upon completion, it will create an opportunity to provide the youth with an avenue to develop their sporting skills and talents, keep them healthy, and create entertainment opportunities through the various games and activities in the complex. The construction work will also create job opportunities for the town’s skilled and unskilled youth.
The former President said at the event that as “As a social democratic party, the NDC is immutable in its commitment to inclusive growth through investments in health, education, and sports. Our sports development programmes will focus on talent development and feed our human development agenda.”
