The presidential candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has stressed that developing major railway lines will be a crucial driver for Ghana\u2019s transformation.<\/p>\n
He has, therefore, unveiled ambitious plans to prioritise the construction of three major railway lines, with the goal of accelerating the nation\u2019s transformation if he is elected President.<\/p>\n
\u201cOne of my priorities in terms of infrastructure development is railway expansion,\u201d Dr. Bawumia told stakeholders of the Atwima Mponua Constituency at the start of his Ashanti Regional tour on Monday (4 November).<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is very important for our country because if we are blessed with bauxite but lack sufficient railway lines, it creates a significant challenge. Developing our railways will greatly benefit Ghana,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere are three main railway lines that I intend to focus on: from Tema in Greater Accra to Kumasi; then from Kumasi to Takoradi; and from Awaaso, through Nyinahin to Aduade. We will deliver these railway lines for you,\u201d he assured. Additionally, he mentioned plans to address a short-distance railway line from Adum to Akaase.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are building roads, and that work is still in progress, but I will also focus on railways because that is where real transformation will come from,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe railway is essential for our country. We will extend it from Accra through Kumasi to the north, enabling us to fully exploit our bauxite, iron ore, and other natural deposits. This is what will drive the transformation we need,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n
The Vice President also spent time with voters in Atwima Nwabiagya North and Atwima Nwabiagya South where he outlined these bold solutions to addressing Ghana\u2019s economic challenges and stimulate growth.<\/p>\n
