Lack of basic amenities: Gbereke BYA appeals for support

Gbereke is a farming community in the Sawla -Tuna-Kalba District in the Savannah Region.

With a population of more than 700 people, the community is one of the food baskets of the District as the residents are into both commercial and peasant farming.

They cultivate yam, maize, soyabean, rice and rear livestock.

In fact, the story of agriculture cannot be told without mentioning the Gbereke community due to its significant contribution towards food production.

In spite of the potentials of the community, it is underdeveloped and deprived.

The community is lacking numerous basic social amenities which is negatively affecting the standard of living of the residents.

For instance, the road network connecting the community to Tuna, is in a very deplorable state . During the rainy season, the residents are cut off from the rest of the District and region as cars and motorbikes are not able to access the road.

More troubling is the residents’ inability to cart their farm produce to the markets in t especially during the rainy season due to the bad nature of the road.

Also negatively impacting the lives of the people is lack of electricity in the area.

Their classroom structure is also said to be in a deplorable state which needs immediate reconstruction.

These concerns were raised on Saturday, January 11, when the Gbereke branch of the Birifor Youth Association was successfully launched.

The President of the Association,Mr Dapila Peter, lamented the frustrations women went through as a result of the bad roads and lack of electricity as well as access to some basic social amenities in the district capital.

He , therefore, appealed to the government to provide basic amenities to improve their living condition.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 11, four and three advocate sustainable cities and communities, quality education, and good health and well-being of all citizens  irrespective of their geographical location.

However, achieving these goals by 2030 appears to be bleak with the glaring state of deprivation of communities such as Gbereke.
