The NATIONAL DEMOCRAT says it is saddening to observe that some of our contractors, with the collaboration of top officials of various government and local government outfits are not helping the country in the way they manage affairs within their areas of jurisdiction.

While the Vice President’s company Lidra Limited has currently attracted the disgust of the residents of Madina, what puzzles most of the residents in Madina is that as the Vice President, Alhaji Aliu Mahama has mounting any available platform to ask contractors to stop shoddy construction, his own company has as if its modus operandi, was stoddily constructing an ill planned road for the residents of Madina, just outside the city of Accra.

The paper says the road in question stretches from Hollywod to the junction of the Dagomba Chief’s palace and the Post Office junction to the Ritz junction.

The road is unusually narrow and there is no provision for a pedestrian walkway or path on either side.
