The Communication Director of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), Hon. Yaw Buaben Asamoah has accused the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) of diverting money meant for cocoa roads to construct roads in Accra.
According to him, it was revealed in an audit report that many of the cocoa roads for which contracts were awarded had been found to be nonexistent or overly bloated because the money was not used for its purpose.
Contributing to a panel discussion on Peace FM's "Kokrokoo", Mr. Buaben Asamoah noted that "between 2015/2016, NDC were not paying road contractors that was why they shifted all road constructions into cocoa sector…Money meant for constructing cocoa roads were diverted into constructing Accra roads…roads in Accra were designated as cocoa roads according to an audit report”.
He therefore asures that majority of the bad road networks in the country would be fixed and urged Ghanaians to repose confidence in the government because President Akufo-Addo will surely deliver on his promises.
