On August 8, 2023, GhanaWeb reported that the Member of Parliament for the Ningo Prampram constituency vowed to deal with any private developer that comes near the Saglemi housing project.<\/p>\n According to him, the government\u2019s decision to give out the project to private developers is a scheme to steal from the country.<\/p>\n Speaking on JoyNews on August 8, 2023, Sam George noted that the current state of the project breaks his heart as he was there to commission Saglemi with former President John Mahama.<\/p>\n \u201cSaglemi is a pain in my heart, every time I drive by the place, and I see the structure because, in 2016, I was with President Mahama when he took us there to commission Saglemi. When we got there, we saw it, there was life. And now to see the footage that shows the state of Saglemi is painful, it is heartbreaking.<\/p>\n \u201cI am the member of Parliament for Ningo-Prampram, any private developer that comes there should be prepared to fight with me. We will fight them. I will carry out the warning that has been sounded by the flagbearer.
