Akufo-Addo Govt Didn’t Divert Funds For Suame Interchange, Other projects- Minority
The Minority in parliament has disputed claims that the Akufo-Addo administration diverted funds meant for the Ofankor-Nsawam Road and the Suame Interchange.
According to the group, the claims made by Finance Minister Cassiel Ato Forson are false and misleading.
It explained that “The $750 million Afreximbank Facility secured under President Akufo-Addo was a multi-purpose infrastructure financing package transparently approved by Parliament and carefully structured to support several critical national road projects across the country.
“These include the Ofankor-Nsawam Road, Suame Interchange, Flowerpot Interchange, the dualization of the School Junction to Motorway stretch (Borteyman), and key bypasses along the Accra-Kumasi Road corridor such as Osino, Anyinam, Enyiresi, and Konongo.”
It stated that the facility was programmatic, designed to complement the Government of Ghana’s counterpart funding, and disbursed in phases tied to specific project milestones.
“It is therefore disingenuous for the current government to distort these facts in an attempt to score political points, rather than focusing on completing these transformative projects in the national interest. Let’s speak facts. Let’s be truthful to Ghanaians.”
