Even if we allow Mr John Mahama to be President for 200yrs he will still be a massive Failure. Late JJ Rawlings saw it that his highest position shd be Deputy Minister. It was the reason why JJ fought Atta Mills.

Hmmmm, were Akuffo Addo and Kuffour the Thieves of Baghdad? Hmmmm, refresh your brains. Did they come to the Presidency as paupers and left as Multimillionaires? Just asking. Ghanaians know that they were self made before putting on the Mantle of Office. They had bought their own Furniture at their homes and had not stolen any Helicopter Seats that they used as their furniture. And they didn’t live with their wife and children on credited YOR KE GARI. I know that very objective Ghanaians know who and what I am referring to. Such paupers should rather be seen as the Thieves of Baghdad or the Midnight Robbers. What then shall Asiedu Nketsia and Boakye Djan be aptly be called? You know the truth yourselves

Only Divisive and anti-Ghanaians support this imaginary and ill-thought plan of Accra-Kumasi highway.Why not complete the current main road then add Railway line?A highway will have been a compliment. Railway and the main road have the potential of boosting economic growth. A fast highway even though will help the economy is basically for passengers not for goods.

You talk about exppres way. Looking at speeding and the deaths on the existing Accra-Kumasi road the number of deaths is going to be tenfold taken into account that its a free way so knowing the way our Ghanaian drivers speeding accidents are going to triple because Ghanaians think when you speed you are the best driver forgetting that unnecessary speeding kills.

Thank you KIM I don't know the number of times we as citizen keep asking and begging past and present Governments to invest and improve our Railway system which makes more tangible sense and profitable for the people and the Nation as a whole. Take a look at the Tons of Cocoa, Timber not forgetting food crops from the Ashanti and Brong Ahafo Region. Hauling these goods per Railway will be more reasonable cheaper as per Road. Here we are with ongoing constructions of Expressway and a Highway to and from Accra and Kumasi. Forcing us to keep repeating and writing the same subject matter on our request for a Railway which in actual sense will reduce the high cost of living. And think what the HELL is it going on to hear a Minister with SKY Train project when our Bauxite, Manganese needs the Rails to the Ports.`` Asamoo´´

These 2 major road projects, one of which is already in existence and the other to be executed from the scratch could be completed by end of 2027 which is approximately 1year 7months from now?

How many contractors when awarded contracts would be able to meet the deadline of 1year 7months on such huge projects?

Is the reporter misquoting the Roads Minister's completing deadline of the project?

You will find that in Ghana, politicians make promises, that cannot possibly be fulfilled, directly to journalists. These same journalists do not call them out on these obvious inconsistencies, probably because in Ghana, no one may contradict mpaninfoɔ. Then inevitably the promise is not kept, the people get disillusioned, lose trust in the press and politicians. Rinse and repeat.

If the resources are available the Minister is right to push both projects. The expressway will relieve congestion on the existing highway, those willing to pay can use the expressway.

A social Democratic party is busily constructing and developing the urban areas to the neglect of the rural proletariat and producers. This is illustrated by their obsession with the construction of expressways, and interchanges, in specific region to please the rulers of those areas. Meanwhile, part of the country is almost cut off as the rains are about to set in. Curiously the president and the number three are from that forgotten part of the country where it takes a day or two to travel from the end of the expressway country.

Research has proven that anytime NDC is in power many Ghanaians fall below Poverty Line.. As a group that claims to be a Social Party is it not an irony? The motive of this project is Over-pricing by JDM's Gang.

Total waste of resources. Two years would never complete this project. The next Government would automatically pursue the existing one to complete the maintenance instead. Instead of productive industry to support the unemployed, mismanagement is the honour of the day. Is left with one year to go away. 2028 election year nothing could be done. Even those to employ would be sacked. What had been an achievement since inauguration.?
