During his trip to Gbewaa Palace after winning the election, he vowed to solve Tamale's water issues before his term ends. The president also talked about freshwater projects that would help nearby areas for years to come.
Many excited locals showed up to greet the president when he arrived. Mahama talked about new jobs and training programs for young people in the area. He shared plans to improve electricity and finish the Eastern Corridor Road to link north and south Ghana. His team would also plant trees to fight forest loss and protect the land.
