The National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Ashanti Region has described the sod-cutting ceremony for the construction of the Suame Interchange project as a gimmick to save the face of majority leader, Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu.
Regional Director of Communication, Abass Nurudeen, said the recent anger vented on the Member of Parliament for the Constituency by the residents is the reason for the sod-cutting.
He claimed the NPP has done little to complete the Sofoline Interchange, hence doubt the commitment to execute the Suame Interchange on schedule.
Addressing the press in Kumasi, the NDC communicator said the four-tier Suame Interchange project cannot see the light of the day before the NPP exits power.
They described the government’s inability to complete the Sofoline Interchange as evidence of their suspicion.
Mr. Abass Nurudeen therefore asserted that the project is a gimmick.
Touching on 'galamsey, Abass Nurudeen said the government’s failure to investigate and prosecute Bernard Antwi Bosiako for his alleged involvement in illegal mining indicates the President has lost the fight against the illegality.
He described the recent tour of the President in the Region as a waste of resources.
Mr. Nurudeen said the President's achievements in the Ashanti Region, touted as the stronghold of the NPP, cannot be compared to achievements by the erstwhile Mahama administration.
