Gomoa Central Lawmaker Kwame Asare Obeng (A-Plus) has rejected claims by Minister of State for Government Communication, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, that taxpayer money will not be used to finance the construction of the Hajj Village.

He also disagrees with the decision to even construct the project at this time.

Ina Facebook post, he said "I strongly disagree with the controversial Hajj Village project, especially at a time when according to the new government, Ghana has more urgent priorities.

While I respect the significance of religious obligations, national resources must be directed toward projects that serve all Ghanaians.
