Deputy Roads and Highways Minister-designate, Alhassan Sayibu Suhuyini has said government will not abandon the Eastern Corridor Road project.

Appearing before the Appointments Committee of Parliament on Wednesday, February 26, 2025, Suhuyini assured that government will attach all seriousness to complete the project within the shortest possible time. "I have the assurances of my minister and by extension the government that the Eastern Corridor Road remains a priority road to this government and will be tackled with all the seriousness that it deserves for it to be completed within the shortest possible time," he told the Committee.

The Eastern Corridor Road, a major national infrastructure project, serves as a crucial link between the northern and southern parts of Ghana.

Stretching from Tema in the Greater Accra Region through the Volta, Oti, Northern, and Upper East regions, the road is a vital trade route that facilitates economic activities, including agriculture, commerce, and transportation.
