Figure 1: MMDCEs MEET-THE PRESS SERIES: HON.DANLADI ABDUL-NASHIR ON STAGE 2 2.0 THE MUNICIPALITY – EAST MAMPRUSI The East Mamprusi Municipal is one of the six MMDAs in the new North East Region with Gambaga as the Municipal capital. It is a historic town lying next to the seat of the Nayiri, King of Mamprugu, and also the first Headquarters of the Northern Territories. It is one of the oldest districts in Northern Ghana. Out of it, the West Mamprusi District was carved in 1988. In 2004, the Bunkpurugu-Yunyoo District was also created to promote developments. It was elevated to Municipal status in 2018 by a Legislative Instrument (LI.2274). It therefore serves as the parent District for West Mamprusi, Bunkpurugu-Nakpanduri and Yunyoo-Nasuan Districts The Municipality has 142 communities with 5 Zonal Councils (namely Nalerigu, Gambaga, Langbinsi, Sakogu and Gbintri). The Municipal Assembly has 36 elected members, 15 Government appointees, 1 Member of Parliament (MP), and the Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) who is the executive and administrative head and assisted by the Municipal Co-ordinating Director and his technical team as the technocrats and advisers of the MCE. Members of the Media, Ladies and Gentlemen, the Government of Nana Addo-Dankwa Akuffo- Addo is determined to use ICT to deliver efficient, effective, and improve services to citizens, and the ongoing digitalization efforts are also geared towards formalizing the economy to support the Ghana Beyond Aid Agenda. The East Mamprusi Municipal Assembly will continue to implement policies and through its departments provide adequate implementation oversight in the Municipality to ensure that expectations of stakeholders are met within the jurisdiction of the Assembly. Members of the Media, this presentation will provide an overview of the following areas: A. Government Flagship Programmes B. Development Projects implemented within the period under review 3.0 GOVERNMENT FLAGSHIP PROGRAMMES The Government flagship programmes being implemented in this Municipality includes the following; Free Senior High School (FSHS) Planting for Food and Jobs (PFJ) Planting for Export and Rural Development (PERD) 2 | P a g e 3 Rearing for Food and Jobs (RFJ) One Million Dollar per Constituency Modernizing Agriculture in Ghana (MAG) One District One Factory Job Creation /Nation Builders Corps (NABCO) 3.1 Free Senior High School Policy (FSHS) The Municipality had two SHS as at September, 2017 thus Nalerigu Senior High School (NASS) and Gambaga Girls Senior High School (GAGISH) when it was first started. The Municipality can now boost of four SHS now as we speak. Namely; NASS GAGISH LANSEC SAKOGU SECONDARY/TECHNICAL It is on record that, the Day SHSs in the Municipality are now enjoying one hot meal per day in Langbinsi and Sakogu Community Day SHS. These were absorbed by government this year and students are being placed in the schools by CSPSS system. The Municipality is also enjoying the Government Emergency Infrastructural Projects to end the Double-track System. Thus construction of 1NO. 2 Story 12-Unit Classroom Block at NASS and construction of 1NO. 2 Story 12-Unit Classroom Block at GAGISH Another construction of a dormitory block with ancillary facilities for GAGISH and the corresponding construction of 1no. 6-unit classroom block in the school which has already reduced the impact of the double-track in the school. It is on record that GAGISH run double-track for only first years as we speak now the rest go through the normal three terms school system. The enrolment figure as at 2017/2018 academic year up till date for the schools are as follows; Gambaga Girls Senior High 2017/2018 2018/2019 2019/2020 SHS1 –312 SHS1 –549 SHS1 –335 SHS2 – 367 SHS2 –312 SHS 2 –540 SHS3 – 371 SHS3 –315 SHS3 –309 3 | P a g e 4 TOTAL = 1,050 TOTAL = 1,176 TOTAL =1,184 Figure 2: PROVISION OF DOMITORY FOR GAGISH Nalerigu Senior High School 2017/2018 2018/2019 2019/2020 BOYS –1,652 BOYS –1,829 BOYS – ongoing GRLS – 1040 GRLS –1240 GRLS – ongoin TOTAL = 2,692 TOTAL = 3,069 TOTAL = pending Langbinsi Senior High School 2018/2019 2019/2020 SHS 1 – 77 SHS1 -53 now SHS 2- 77 TOTAL = 77 TOTAL = 130 4 | P a g e 5 Figure 3: Students of Langbinsi Community Day School Figure 2SAKOGU COMMUNITY DAY SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL 5 | P a g e 6 Sakogu

  • Ownership and Access to Land in Urban Mamprugu, Northern Ghana
    Journal of Poverty, Investment and Development - An Open Access International Journal Vol.3 2014 Ownership and Access to Land in Urban Mamprugu, Northern Ghana Sagre Bambangi1 and Abdulai Abubakari2 Abstract This paper explores land ownership and access to land in the urban areas of Mamprugu in the Northern Region of Ghana. An overview of the system of land ownership and access in the rural areas for both residential and agricultural purposes has been used as a background for the understanding of the changes provoked by urbanization. The information used was qualitative through key informant interviews, observation and group discussions. The study revealed that land ownership and access in the traditional rural context was often in tranquility and rarely encountered conflicts. Occasional conflicts arising from the traditional rural arrangements were often easier to resolve. Also, the financial costs have been considered to be within the means of the average family or household in the locality. However, it was observed that access to land by women in the traditional framework subtly deprived women because of the patrilineal system of inheritance and the role assigned to women by the society. In the urban context, land ownership and access is in transition with a combination of traditional and modern institutions in land administration for residential and public infrastructure purposes. The study observed increasing incidence of land disputes in Mamprugu as urbanization progresses. It is recommended that the three district assemblies in Mamprugu in collaboration with the traditional authorities initiate a joint programme to address causes of the emerging problems in the few urban settlements.

  • Comparison of the Profitability of Groundnut Production in West Mamprusi and Bunkpurugu-Yuyoo Districts in Northern Ghana J
    G.J.B.A.H.S.,Vol.3(2):144-151 (April –June, 2014) ISSN: 2319 – 5584 COMPARISON OF THE PROFITABILITY OF GROUNDNUT PRODUCTION IN WEST MAMPRUSI AND BUNKPURUGU-YUYOO DISTRICTS IN NORTHERN GHANA J. A. Akolgo;1 G. T. Kwadzo;2 & D. P. K. Amegashie;2 1Department of Ecological Agriculture, Bolgatanga Polytechnic, Ghana P. O. Box 767, Bolgatanga, Ghana. 2 Department of Agricultural Economics and Agribusiness, University of Ghana Abstract The study compared the profitability of groundnut production between Bunkpurugu-Yunyoo and West-Mamprusi districts in Northern Ghana. A Cobb -Douglas production function and gross income analysis were used in the analysis to determine the effect of “VAPAP” project on the profits of farmers in the two districts. It revealed that land size, capital, labour, experience and gender significantly influenced the output of groundnuts in the study area. The mean output per acre in Bunkpurugu-Yunyoo was 456.86kg of unshelled groundnuts whilst West-Mamprusi was 412.98kg with a mean difference of 43.89kg higher output in Bunkpurugu than West-Mamprusi at 1% significance level. A mean amount of Gh¢ 52.47 and Gh¢ 59.52 per acre were the cost of production in Bunkpurugu-Yunyoo and West-Mamprusi respectively. There was a mean difference of Gh¢7.0 higher cost of production per acre in West-Mamprusi than Bunkpurugu-Yunyoo at 1% significant level. A mean profit of Gh ¢ 77.25 and Gh¢ 42.50 were realized from Bunkpurugu-Yunyoo and West- Mamprusi respectively. The mean difference of the profit was Gh¢ 34.71 at 1% significance level.

  • East Mamprusi District
    EAST MAMPRUSI DISTRICT Copyright (c) 2014 Ghana Statistical Service ii PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT No meaningful developmental activity can be undertaken without taking into account the characteristics of the population for whom the activity is targeted. The size of the population and its spatial distribution, growth and change over time, in addition to its socio-economic characteristics are all important in development planning. A population census is the most important source of data on the size, composition, growth and distribution of a country’s population at the national and sub-national levels. Data from the 2010 Population and Housing Census (PHC) will serve as reference for equitable distribution of national resources and government services, including the allocation of government funds among various regions, districts and other sub-national populations to education, health and other social services. The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) is delighted to provide data users, especially the Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies, with district-level analytical reports based on the 2010 PHC data to facilitate their planning and decision-making. The District Analytical Report for the East Mamprusi District is one of the 216 district census reports aimed at making data available to planners and decision makers at the district level. In addition to presenting the district profile, the report discusses the social and economic dimensions of demographic variables and their implications for policy formulation, planning and interventions. The conclusions and recommendations drawn from the district report are expected to serve as a basis for improving the quality of life of Ghanaians through evidence- based decision-making, monitoring and evaluation of developmental goals and intervention programmes.

  • Issue: 10 Dead, Several Rendered Homeless After Bagré Dam Spillage Date: September 7, 2020 Location: North Eastern Ghana
    Issue: 10 Dead, Several Rendered Homeless After Bagré Dam Spillage Date: September 7, 2020 Location: North Eastern Ghana BACKGROUND/ DEMOGRAPHY North Eastern Ghana ✓ The Bagré Dam is a multipurpose dam on the White Volta located near Bagré Village in Burkina Faso. ✓ The spillage of the dam which began on August 10, 2020, has led to the destruction of food crops of mainly smallholder farmers who consistently face perennial flooding around this time annually through rainfall. © Wikipedia ✓ Chereponi is the capital of the Chereponi district, a district in the North East Region and has an estimated population of 67609. ✓ The major industry engaging majority of the workers in the district is agriculture, farming, and animal husbandry. Crops such as rice, corn, soya bean, groundnuts and watermelon are mostly cultivated. ✓ It shares boundaries with the following Districts: Gushegu Source: Google Maps Municipal to the west; Bunkpurugu Nyankpanduri District to the north, Saboba District to the south and The Republic of Togo to the east bordered by the River Oti. INCIDENT PROFILE Several farms along the White Volta in the Bawku West District in the Upper East Region have been destroyed by flooding, resulting from the spillage of excess water from the Bagre Dam in Burkina Faso on August 10, 2020. Districts affected included the Bawku Municipal, Bawku West, Binduri, Nabdam and Talensi. In the early hours of September 7th, 2020, several communities in the North East Region along the White Volta have become inaccessible following heavy downpours of rain. This came after the spillage of water from the Bagre Dam had already devastated communities along the White Volta.

  • A Case Study in Bunkpurugu-Yunyoo District in Northern
    Amratia et al. Malar J (2019) 18:81 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12936-019-2703-4 Malaria Journal RESEARCH Open Access Characterizing local-scale heterogeneity of malaria risk: a case study in Bunkpurugu-Yunyoo district in northern Ghana Punam Amratia1,2* , Paul Psychas2, Benjamin Abuaku3, Collins Ahorlu3, Justin Millar1,2, Samuel Oppong4, Kwadwo Koram3 and Denis Valle1,2 Abstract Background: Bayesian methods have been used to generate country-level and global maps of malaria prevalence. With increasing availability of detailed malaria surveillance data, these methodologies can also be used to identify fne-scale heterogeneity of malaria parasitaemia for operational prevention and control of malaria. Methods: In this article, a Bayesian geostatistical model was applied to six malaria parasitaemia surveys conducted during rainy and dry seasons between November 2010 and 2013 to characterize the micro-scale spatial heterogeneity of malaria risk in northern Ghana. Results: The geostatistical model showed substantial spatial heterogeneity, with malaria parasite prevalence varying between 19 and 90%, and revealing a northeast to southwest gradient of predicted risk. The spatial distribution of prevalence was heavily infuenced by two modest urban centres, with a substantially lower prevalence in urban cen- tres compared to rural areas. Although strong seasonal variations were observed, spatial malaria prevalence patterns did not change substantially from year to year. Furthermore, independent surveillance data suggested that the model had a relatively good predictive performance when extrapolated to a neighbouring district. Conclusions: This high variability in malaria prevalence is striking, given that this small area (approximately 30 km 40 km) was purportedly homogeneous based on country-level spatial analysis, suggesting that fne-scale parasitaemia× data might be critical to guide district-level programmatic eforts to prevent and control malaria.
