The Nanumba North District is already grappling with falling educational standards.<\/p>\n
A former District Chief Executive for the Nanumba North District, Salifu Saeed alias SS in a Citi News interview described the situation as totally unacceptable.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow all schools in Bimbila Township have been closed: children want to go to school, education is key.\u201d
\nHe also bemoaned that the situation had adversely affected economic activities.<\/p>\n
\u201cWomen cannot go about their businesses: I want to appeal to my people, please you cannot come out to fight among yourselves and claim victory.\u201d<\/p>\n
As a former Chairman of the District Security Committee, Salifu Saeed admonished the security operatives to place premium on early warning signals.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want to also appeal to the security to take early warning signals in the area very seriously because this is an area that has suffered intermittent conflicts since 81: so the potentials of the people living within that area to come out and fight among themselves and cause destruction to lives and property is very huge.\u201d<\/p>\n
