Andrew Egyapa Mercer, Minister-designate for the Ministry of Tourism, has assured that he will liaise with the necessary stakeholders to ensure the successful completion of the Marine Drive project.<\/p>\n

During his vetting in Parliament, Mr Egyapa Mercer indicated that the project was moved to the Office of the President in 2020 and that he will liaise with the presidency to ensure the project\u2019s completion.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am not so sure whether the Marine Drive is not making any progress because, as we speak, the Consortium Partners are actually on site doing preparatory works. I am aware that sometime in 2020, it [the project] was moved to the Office of the President and there has been some indication of a desire to have the Tourism Ministry take over the project.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo I intend to liaise with the Office of the President to ensure that the project is executed to its logical conclusion and I can assure you that whatever I have to do to ensure for us to see some progress, I will do.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Marine Drive Accra is a 241-acre redevelopment scheme of Accra\u2019s waterfront initiated by Ghana\u2019s Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture.<\/p>\n

The brief for the project \u2014 the origins of which trace back to the country\u2019s independence 67 years ago\u2014called for a scheme that would establish an iconic skyline for Accra and transform the capital\u2019s city centre into a world-class tourism enclave.<\/p>\n

The Marine Drive Accra project will also provide essential infrastructure to support the country\u2019s developing cultural and creative industries.<\/p>\n\n
