2013 Kakube Festival Celebrated

Government is awaiting a report of an update on the proposed Kamba Irrigation Project in the Nandom District of the Upper West Region for necessary action. The study was conducted by an Israeli technical team in collaboration with MoFA last year. The Regional Minister Dr Avea Nsoh who read a speech on behalf of President John Mahama at this year's Kakube festival said the continuous reliance on rain for agriculture in the area is a source of worry to government. As a short term measure, government is rehabilitating two dugouts and one dam, while it awaits the report.
