In a press release under the signature of Joseph Yammin, the Regional Secretary of the party, he says the NDC in the region is following with keen interest recent remarks by some NPP MPs in the region that the the NDC government has abandoned projects in the strong holds of the Opposition party, with specific emphasis on the Ashanti region.
“We have also heard of a planned demonstration in Kumasi in that regard”, he states, urging well meaning Ghanaians to disregard such a move since it is intended solely for the attainment of political scores.
He says the “much talked about projects are the Komfo Anokye – Abuakwa interchange, Anloga Junction – Asokwa interchange and the Affordable housing project at Asokore Mampong”, adding that work on these projects are still ongoing with the Anloga junction- Asokwa interchange seeing 75% workdone with finance from Ghana-France partnership. “The Komfo Anokye – Abuakwa interchange, has also seen 55% completion and is entirely a Government of Ghana project”.
Joseph Yammin in the statement says concerning the affordable housing project, the Ashanti region is not the only beneficiary Region and that government has come clear to explain that it is sourcing funds to complete these housing projects as it was made known to parliament by H.E Prof. Mills when he addressed Parliament last year.
According to the regional scribe, the people of the region are discerning, so any attempt to incite them against the Prof. Mills-led NDC will not work.
