Where Have The Billions Gone: Abronye Demands Accountability From Bono Regional Minister

According to recent reports, Kwame Baffoe Abronye, the Bono Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has launched a fierce attack on Bono Regional Minister Joseph Addae Akwaboa, demanding a full accounting of billions of cedis allocated for regional development.

Abronye’s challenge follows claims by government officials that the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) administration has achieved more development in the Bono Region in under two years than the NPP accomplished over its eight-year tenure. Rejecting the comparison, Abronye called on the Regional Minister to move beyond political rhetoric and publicly present verifiable project evidence, expenditure breakdowns, and physical proof of completed infrastructure.

Emphasizing that public declarations must be backed by tangible results, Abronye questioned the exact status of key projects funded by the allocated state funds. He urged Akwaboa to specify how public resources were utilized across critical sectors such as road networks, healthcare facilities, schools, and job creation initiatives.

The demand intensifies the rivalry between the NPP and NDC in the Bono Region, where regional development remains a core concern for residents. While NDC leadership continues to defend its record by citing ongoing policies and regional progress, opposition leaders insist that transparency is lacking regarding the actual impact of government spending.

Although specific project lists and precise financial figures were not detailed in Abronye’s address, his statements place significant pressure on the Regional Minister to clarify the administration’s achievements. Regional Minister Joseph Addae Akwaboa has yet to issue an official response to the opposition chairman’s accounting demand.
