Alexander Afenyo-Markin has had enough of the mess on the Winneba-Kasoa highway. The Minority Leader told Parliament that contractors walked away from the road project because the government refuses to pay them. Thousands of drivers face a nightmare every day as they struggle through the unfinished construction zone. The Effutu MP demanded action during Wednesday's session. He wants the authorities to settle their debts with the road builders immediately.
Parliament just approved a massive 360 million dollar loan from the World Bank. Afenyo-Markin supports the funding but insists part of the money must go toward paying contractors. Many construction companies have abandoned major road projects across Ghana because they never received payment for completed work. The politician warned that these delays create dangerous conditions for motorists. He stressed that proper roads are essential for the country's growth and development.
The lawmaker painted a grim picture of the current situation for commuters. He told fellow MPs that the abandoned Kasoa-Winneba project causes serious traffic problems every single day. Workers left their equipment and materials scattered across the construction site. The incomplete highway forces vehicles to squeeze through narrow lanes and dangerous detours. Afenyo-Markin believes the government must act fast to prevent more accidents and economic losses.
