President John Mahama has announced that contractors who abandoned road projects across the country will soon return to their sites, following the conclusion of an audit by the Auditor-General into contracts awarded under the previous administration.
The announcement was made on Sunday during the President's Eastern Regional "Thank You" Tour at Jackson Park in Koforidua, where he addressed party supporters and traditional leaders.
Highlighting the significance of his administration's Big Push Agenda, a bold infrastructure development initiative, President Mahama said the government is determined to restart and complete key road projects that had been stalled due to financial and contractual irregularities. "The Auditor-General has come with his report.
So we are going to make the contractors go back to the site," he said, adding that "those who had double payments will be punished." The President emphasized that proper oversight and accountability would guide the next phase of implementation, as the government seeks to accelerate infrastructure delivery without tolerating corruption or inefficiency.
