Imbonggu on the rise

Letters

AT a glance over the shoulder, one could feel the tremors of anxiety and pain from our recent past that silenced Imbonggu.
Walume, the lone district office funded by late MP Peter Ipu Peipul in 1997 stood isolated and defunct as successive political heads came and were gone with no trace.
Consequently, hope was fading when Pila Niningi, the dejected son of Imbonggu emerged from the ruins in 2017 and there was light at the end of the tunnel.
What can be achieved in four years or in a single Parliamentary term for that matter?
Imbonggu now has a community development centre; police station; law and justice office; modern rural hospital in progress; court house; renovation/extension of sub-health centres; inauguration of Imbonggu Cultural Show; rural electrification; Bailey Bridges; Internal Revenue Commission office; delivery of ambulances and police vehicles; subsidiary routes to reach Imbonggu’s backwaters and beyond; infrastructural developments in high/secondary schools; communication networks to erect towers; and, Ninigi’s brainchild and our pride of all time, the Imbonggu Business Centre, will be opened in a few weeks.
Imbonggu’s ambitions are being realised by the current district administration.
Being oblivious to insults, the district has turned criticisms into workable tools and is by far, the top performing district administration.
Critics on social media should offer alternatives than condemnation.
This letter intends to remind Imbonggu that the dawn of our new era has already begun and gone are days of leaders leaving the people out there to suffer.
Let us embrace this great opportunity.

Topel Kiripi, Imbonggu
