Member of Parliament (MP) for Tano North in the Brong Ahafo region, Freda Prempeh, says the bad nature of roads in her constituency is affecting farming productivity of the people.
According to the MP, farmers in her constituency are unable to send their harvest to various destinations on time due to the poor roads. She says the rains have compounded the problem.
She is therefore appealing to government to urgently intervene in the situation.
She said the road from Dua Nkwanta through Esukese to Subompae and other roads are in very deplorable states.
According to her, drivers are unwilling to carry goods from those towns to the main cities and that could affect food security in Accra.
According to the MP, apart from cocoa, her constituency also produces other major foodstuffs, and hence if the bad roads situation is not addressed could affect food security.
