The Member of Parliament for Ashaiman, Ernest Norgbey, has accused the Akufo-Addo administration of denying his constituency development because it is a National Democratic Congress (NDC) stronghold.<\/p>\n
\u201cAny time NPP comes to power, no developmental projects come to Ashaiman,\u201d he complained on the Citi Breakfast Show on Tuesday, June 21, 2022.<\/p>\n
Mr. Norgbey said some school projects have also been abandoned in his district.<\/p>\n
\u201cEven though we pay taxes and do all other things as a civic responsibility, they are not looking at us,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
According to the MP, the perceived neglect of the government was evident to all his constituents.<\/p>\n
\u201cEverybody is aware of this, otherwise, I see why no reason why contracts will be awarded, but contractors will be moved from Ashaiman to Tema to go and fix Tema roads,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Following his appeals, Mr. Norgbey said if the government does not respond favourably to the concerns of his constituents, he will organise a protest.<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause if you do all other processes, and they fall on deaf ears, then you don\u2019t have any other thing to do again,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
In the meantime, Mr. Norgbey has initiated rehabilitation works on some bad roads in the district.<\/p>\n
He has urged the district assembly to offer its support by contributing bitumen to his efforts.<\/p>\n
