President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has opened the Salaga Water project in the Savannah region.

Nana Addo assured residents in Salaga in 2017 that the Water project which is sourced from the River Dakar, flowing in the direction of 14km North-East of Salaga will be integrated into the urban water supply system.

The system was built in 1962 and currently has undergone enormous repair to improve its capacity and supply reliability, especially during the dry season.

The commissioned Salaga Water Expansion project has a capacity of 85,000 gallons which will serve Salaga and its neighbourhood.

Replacement and upgrading of defective raw water transmission mains at Salaga were embarked on, and the completion of a new underground adhesive storage tank including internal treatment and constructionist valve chambers at Salaga.

A new pump house structure was constructed including internal and external pipe networks at Salaga and a glass-reinforced plastic high-level tank of capacity 85,000 gallons was done.

The paramount chief of Kpembe, Kpembewura Babanye Haruna Bismark, thanked President Akufo-Addo for the completion of the Salaga water system project.

The Kpembewura remarked that the commissioning of the project will strengthen socio-economic activities in the municipality.

The people of Salaga are grateful for the project.
