NDC embarks on reshaping deplorable roads in Volta Region

In a bid to improve road infrastructure in the Volta Region, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has embarked on a rigorous reshaping of some roads in the region.

So far, about one hundred and forty kilometers (140 km) of roads have been reshaped at the cost of about three million Ghana cedis (GH¢3,000,000) from the party's coffers.

The beneficiary constituencies include Central Tongu: 22 km, North Tongu: 15 km, Adaklu: 15 km (spot improvement), Kpetoe: 15 km, Akatsi North: 12 km, Ketu North: 15 km, Hohoe: 18 km, Akatsi South: 10 km, and South Tongu: 15 km.

Speaking in an interview, the Volta Regional Chairman of the NDC, Mawutor Agbavitor, said the ambitious project is being undertaken in a bid to improve roads in the region and to ensure that the roads remain motorable to aid transportation.

According to him, the region was lagging in terms of roads and other developmental projects due to the neglect and insensitivity of the Akufo Addo/Bawumia government.

Agbavitor urged the people of the region to continue to throw their unflinching support behind the NDC, as it is the only political party in the country that believes in the well-being of the masses.

"The NDC remains the obvious choice of the people of Volta and the whole of Ghana, and we will leave no stone unturned to win the upcoming December elections in order to restore hope and dignity to the good people of Ghana," he said.

He called on the electorate to consider the current trajectory of the country under the NPP and make informed decisions before the December elections.

He said the party will intensify its campaign in every nook and cranny of the region to ensure that "we emerge victorious in the December polls; Ghanaians are looking up to us to rescue them from the quagmire of incompetence, mismanagement, and looting of state resources by the NPP government and it's cronies over these last eight years, and we cannot afford to fail them."

This novel move by the NDC, even in opposition without access to the national coffers, indicates the preparedness and commitment of the party to change the fortunes of the country when voted back into power on December 7.
