Residents of Gbulung in the Kumbungu district of the Northern Region have hit the streets in protest over the bad nature of their roads.

The residents say the roads are so bad they cannot access healthcare or go to market with their farm produce.

On Wednesday, hundreds of the angry residents poured onto the dilapidated roads demanding a quick fix of the roads.

They threatened to boycott the December elections if government fails to construct the roads.

Government has been campaigning on the promise of infrastructure development across many parts of the country.

One of the key areas mentioned is the provision of roads. At the National Democratic Congress campaign launch this week end, speaker after speaker trumpeted achievements chalked by government.

But some residents across the country are protesting over what they is the bad roads in their various localities.

Wednesday saw two demonstrations at two different regions all which were on one issue- bad roads. First it was residents of Ho Central who claim roads in their localities were bad. Then other was in Gbulung in the Northern Region.
