During a courtesy call by the World Bank Vice President for Western and Central Africa at the Manhyia Palace on January 10, 2025, the Asantehene highlighted the persistent delays in projects meant for Kumasi and attributed these delays to bureaucratic hurdles in Accra.
emphasized the need for the project office to be located in Kumasi rather than being managed from Accra. "I don't know what is delaying it, but the project office should be here.
We shouldn't be running projects here when we have the office in Accra.
