Heeeeerrrrrrr.........His Excellency Osagyefo John Dramani Mahama!!! You're real. No bull shitting. There is hope for the future.
President Mahama is a man of vision.
Good job Mr President and more grease to your elbows, I'll have wish they could be handed to whole project to execute.
President Mahama should consider constructing one half of the road by 2027 and completing the other half by 2028 instead of targetting both sides by 2028. In the case of Accra - Kumasi road, since we are looking at 3 lanes, ...

A step in the right direction. I commend the President for this decision.
These are the kind of people we need to lead the country and not the deceptives we have known in the past.
Well done!
Looking forward to completion of the actual road
Will be very proud of you Mr president!!
It's a bold decision to construct from scratch. The is massive and I pray the presidence dream gets fulfilled. All future presidents should endeavour to do big projects.
Let us fix what we have now. The present road is killing people.
YES SIR
Great Work ,Mr President
Congratulations Ghana Armed Forces
Proud of your magnificent achievement
Good to be recognised for the work ahead
Its a Contract to be paid with the taxpayers Army. Did you put it out for Procurement rules as the law reuires so we know we are getting value for money. Or you just handover a $5m Contract to the Army Commander with no accou ...

Are you that stupid not to reaise that the Army cannot be prosecurted in a civilian court but rather Cour ...

Some people see ghosts where there are no ghosts.
No. There is a new paradigm shift in national development where the army are stakeholders.
Look at you,, just visit Korea, Japan, Ukraine,China and see what their militaries are doing for their countries.You the military is just for kill and go?
Knowing that the military cannot be prosecuted in a civilian courts, if $5m vanishes into thin air who does the taxpayer hold responsible.
If you want the military to be involved in private contracts which are overseen by ...

Yes thank you Mahama for acknowledging the GAF. Let them take part in the work. So that they beat NPP saboteurs who are planning to go and block the road with a KIA Rhino
I think Ghana stands to benefit immensely if we start using the military to provide some critical services and infrastructure delivery in this country. Hudos to president Mahama for showing 8way!
THIS WAS THE BEST OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE NEW MODERN EQUIPMENT FOR THEM TO DO THE JOB AND CONTINUE WITH OTHER ROADS BUT I GUESS THE COST WILL BE VERY LOW AND NO KICK BACK FOR CAMPAIGN AND PARTY GURUS .
GOOD PRESIDENT INTERVEN ...

Two attempts and you still couldn't get right.
You struggle with your speeding paa.

That's why Ghana needs more engineers than lawyers. Engineering drives development not grammar!!!!!!!
Truly ttuly we have the men in ghana. We are not signing any dubious inflated contract with any fictitious 30-day old "construction company". Ghana will definitely get better.
Much commendation goes to President Mahama and his government for this enviable project.
A TRIAL WILL CONVINCES YOU

Mr President, remember your hometown also. Although, I am from the Ashanti region but I think it's also nice to campaign for the people of Bole. God bless you for giving us such an express road.
A step in the right direction. I commend the President for this descision.
This is great news for Ghana. Good leadership style and political will are always good developments. Kudos to JM and the NDC government. This is an exemplary act for all our leaders to follow to br about development.
Kudos for this , president Mahama
Kudos for this , president Mahama. You are using the soldiers effectively. Please do not allow our hospitals to engage foreigners to pay them higher for the same work that can be done effectively by our locals if motivated ...
