Photos: Govt Begins Repairing Ejisu’s Major Roads Ahead Of The By-election

With a promise to see the projects through to completion, the government has started rehabilitating major roads within the communities that make up the Ejisu Municipality.

Francis Asenso Boakye, the minister of roads and highways, refuted claims that the projects were carried out because of the upcoming by-election in the area when he led Ministry officials to inspect the ongoing work on Thursday, April 18.

The Ministry said the government is undertaking about 32 road infrastructure projects within the Ejisu Constituency which are being carried out by the Urban, Feeder and Highway Departments.

 

 

The Minister noted that the contracts were awarded in the past three months when the late Member of Parliament for Ejisu, John Ampontuah Kumah was still alive.

He insists the constructions are not solely for the upcoming by-election in the Constituency.

 

 

“Currently, about 32 projects are going on in the municipality, these projects include urban roads, Ghana Highway authority, and Feeder roads projects. I’m satisfied with the work going on, the contractors are some of the best we have.

 

“I’m confident they will continue to work very hard so that we can complete the project as scheduled. None of these projects was awarded in the last three months. These are not by-election projects, the past three years some of the projects have been going on. The MP who passed on was instrumental in making sure that these projects are designed and constructed. Rest assured; these are not by-election projects; these are normal projects the ministry is implementing.”

 

 

 

Contractors are currently working on projects located in communities including Achiakrom, Abankro, Donyina, Onwe and Adako Jachie.
