Roads and Highways Minister, Francis Asenso Boakye, who led officials of the Ministry to inspect the ongoing projects on Thursday, April 18, dismissed assertions that the projects were being done because of the upcoming by-election in the area.
.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.
.“Currently, about 32 projects are going on in the municipality, these projects include urban roads, Ghana Highway authority, and Feeder roads projects
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.”
