To Mr Alexander Aponsah, work has been going on smoothly and the community folks have been cooperative. He said, even though there were some misunderstanding over compensations for cocoa farmers who got affected, the issues have been resolved peacefully.

Mr. Amponsah was optimistic the road will be completed on time.

The DCE Hon Francis Kwadwo Oppong  commended the firm for the tremendous work done so far and urge them to ensure value for money.

At the other locations of the tour, whiles some health facilities were faced with accommodation and limited bed capacity  wards, some of the educational facilities were also faced with lack of electricity insertion in their new blocks.

But the common challenge was that, most of the contractors for these facilities had abandoned site.

Meanwhile, the DCE has directed the District’s Coordinating Director to as a matter of urgency get in touch with these contractors to know the challenges and ensure the successful completion of these projects.

With the DCE on the tour were the Coordinating Director, staff from the Assembly, Party executives and folks .
