The Burkinabe President, His Excellency, Blaise Campaore, is building a multi million dollar mansion in Ghana.
The building, which is sited at Krobo-Nsi, near Senya Bereku, in the Central Region, close aides of the Burkinabe leader have hinted, “will serve as the private residence of President Campaore after retiring from the presidency”.
Independent values put the conservative estimate of the castle-like mansion, which is only about 40 per cent complete at ?30 billion.
The mansion has seven security posts, a towering fence wall, three staff bungalows and five master bedroom each fitted with Jacuzzi and dressing rooms.
A source close to the building contractor, Enterprise Traveaux Tabchoury, Ghana limited, disclosed that there were as many as 300 workers hired for the construction of the mansion, which had been reduced to a skeletal staff of about 10.
