The Minister for Roads and Highways, Governs Kwame Agbodza, has launched a scolding critique against former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta over his handling of economic management and infrastructure delivery in Ghana. Speaking on recent developmental strides, Agbodza questioned the legacy of the former finance chief, suggesting Ofori-Atta will be left to reflect in frustration while observing the current administration accomplish key road and civil projects that stalled during his tenure.
Agbodza highlighted the sharp contrast between the former administration's promises and its actual performance on national road networks. He noted that despite receiving substantial budgetary allocations and public funds, the previous economic team failed to deliver critical arterial routes, modern overpasses, and regional transit corridors. According to the Minister, this lack of execution left large parts of Ghana's road network in severe disrepair.
Focusing his criticism directly on the former minister's track record, Agbodza remarked on the ironic reality Ofori-Atta now faces abroad. He asserted that watching television from America and witnessing the rapid execution of stalled projects will serve as a constant reminder of how fiscal mismanagement directly crippled national infrastructure development during Ofori-Atta's time in office.
Reiterating his commitment to accountability and efficiency, the Roads and Highways Minister assured the public that ongoing projects will be finished on schedule and within budget. He emphasized that the current administration is dismantling long-standing structural bottlenecks, ensuring that contractors meet strict operational standards without political favoritism, and delivering the reliable infrastructure Ghanaians were denied for years.
