She has honoured a promise she made to the locals by constructing 20 mechanised boreholes to supply potable water for domestic use.
“I am very happy to do this for my people,” Hajia Fathia, as she is affectionately called, said after handing over the boreholes to the communities. “The people need clean water to cook and for other domestic purposes so this is my support to them.”
The beneficiary communities are Damdu, Bihinaayili, Yilipkani, Disiga, Nayili fong-Diare, Kambongtooni-Savelugu, Sanaa and Bogu.
Others are Nabogu, Pong-Tamale, Kukoubila-Tamalgu, Dinga, Nyoglo, Saakpem, Kpatuli, Kpalang, Lagos-Diare, Kpalyogu, Bunglung and Zosali.
“We are really excited for this wonderful support because access to clean water has been our major headache for the past years. Fatahiya Aziz is indeed a mother for all and we will all give her our support to lead us,” Adisa Nuhu, a 34-year-old mother, said.
“We will forever be grateful for the boreholes. This is someone who is not even MP, then when she becomes an MP Savelugu constituency will see more and better development. She has our support and we’ll also reciprocate when the time comes that she needs our help. May she live to see her dream come true,” Abass Shaibu, residing in Bogu, also added.
