Road Works Continue in Akwatia After By-Election

Road construction works in parts of Akwatia are still ongoing days after Tuesday’s by-election, despite earlier suspicions that the projects were quickly rolled out to influence voters. JoyNews observed active roadworks across the constituency, including in Kusi and Tarkrowase, the hometowns of both parents of MP-elect Bernard Bediako. A day after the polls, tipper trucks and graders were still on site, with construction teams preparing the roads for asphalting. Similar activity was recorded in Tarkrowase. A contractor working on some of the projects, who spoke off the record, revealed that the roads had been abandoned for nearly seven years. He explained that the works are currently being executed under a daily contract arrangement. While admitting that construction only began less than a week before the election, he dismissed claims that the timing was politically motivated. Bernard Bediako, the NDC candidate, […]
