Residents of Nyantujah Chiefdom have praise River Gee County Senator Francis S. Dopoh.
Dopoh had rehabilitated a major road that links several communities in the area.
For years, the road had deteriorated into deep potholes, and muddy stretches, making movement nearly impossible, mainly during the rainy season.
Farmers had struggled to get produce to market, students walked long distances, and emergency vehicles could not access the communities.
Community members recalled over the weekend, how the poor road condition had cut off trade, and slowed daily life in the chiefdom.
“The road was so bad that even motorcycles could not pass when it rained. Our farm products often spoiled before reaching Fish-Town. Now cars, and bikes are moving freely. Thanks to Sen. Dopoh,” one resident told the gathering.
Traders, pedestrians, and commercial drivers remembered how the rehabilitation has restored access between villages, reduced transport costs, and revived small businesses along the route.
On behalf of the chiefdom, several elders, and youth leaders, thanked Sen. Dopoh for responding to their long-standing appeal.
“This project shows that Sen. Dopoh is listening to his people. He promised to improve infrastructure in River Gee, and he is delivering. We are very grateful.”
Residents described the road work as a major boost to agriculture, education, and health services in Nyantujah, as it now connects farmers to markets, and allows access to clinics, and schools.
While celebrating the progress, residents appealed to Dopoh, and the county authorities to put measures that would maintain the road for all weather.
“We don’t want this road to go back to the way it was. We are asking for proper drainage, periodic grading, and community involvement so this investment can last for our children.”
The road rehabilitation is part of Sen. Dopoh’s infrastructure push in the county to improve road connectivity between rural communities, and the county capital, Fish-Town.
