Ghana's president has hinted at punishment awaiting road contractors who took double pay for their work done under the previous administration.
He says that after the Auditor General delivered his audit of roads constructed, it emerged that some road contractors took money from the Road Fund and the Ministry of Finance, and these contractors will be punished for the duplication. "When we came, we asked the contractors to halt the work they were doing.
We realized that with some of the roads, the road fund had paid, and the finance ministry has also paid for it because they sent the certificate there too. "The Auditor-General has come with his report.
So we are going to make the contractors go back to the site.
