There is no single road project abandoned under the NPP government in the Savannah Region- Mr Issah Mohammed.

The Savannah Regional Director of Communications for the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP), Mr Issah Mohammed, has refuted claims by the NDC Regional Organizer that the current NPP administration has abandoned road projects started by them in the region.

In a press statement issued by the party on September 15, 2021, Issah Mohammed said the opposition party feels threatened by the ongoing projects under the current administration in the region hence these claims.

The Communications Director made these comments in a reaction to claims by the NDC Regional Organizer, Mr Abdulai Inusah, blaming the governing New Patriotic Party for abandoning roads that were started by the erstwhile John Mahama administration and subsequently leading to flooding in some parts of the Region.

Mr Issah reiterated that is no single road that was stopped since 2017, instead, they have either been continued, upgraded/re-packaged, or terminated and re-awarded for serious contractors to execute. Major roads as the Tamale Salaga Mankango and Salaga Bimbila roads that were dashed to the blood brother of the then President; Mr. Ibrahim Mahama was abandoned for 2 good years until it was terminated painfully in the 3rd year and today, we have several contractors on those major roads working tirelessly to finish.

He added that “Some 2 other roads that were cut-off by the recent floods are the Busunu-Daboya and Tuna-Kalba roads and these road projects as referenced by the NDC were dashed to another blood brother of the former President; Mr. Peter Mahama under the NDC.

The man has since done a very poor jobs that left the roads washed off even before completion. On the Busunu-Daboya for instance, the contractor and his engineer have since admitted that they put in inappropriate culverts that exposed the road to floods. They have hurriedly run back to the said portion to cover up their poor job”.

Press Release – 15.09.2021

RE- Savannah Region NDC Organiser blames NPP government over Floods in the Region

THE JOBLESS NDC ARM-AIR EXECUTIVES OF SAVANNAH REGION MUST GET OUT OF THEIR INCURABLE IGNORANCE ON ROADS

I read on the media the purposeless effusions of the arm-chair executives of the NDC in the Savannah Region. In the said statement, the Regional Organiser and the NDC puts out blatant falsehoods garnished with unforgivable ignorance. Why such a major political party in the Region chose to disgrace themselves and the Former President John Mahama is still a misery.

Firstly, it is not true that the Nana Addo-Bawumia led NPP government has abandoned the roads started by the erstwhile government under the Former President. There is no single road that was stopped since 2017, instead, they have either been continued, upgraded/re-packaged, or terminated and re-awarded for serious contractors to execute. Major roads as the Tamale Salaga Mankango and Salaga Bimbila roads that were dashed to the blood brother of the then President; Mr. Ibrahim Mahama was abandoned for 2 good years until it was terminated painfully in the 3rd year. Today, we have several contractors on those major roads working tirelessly to finish.

Some 2 other roads that were cut-off by the recent floods are the Busunu-Daboya and Tuna-Kalba roads. These road projects as referenced by the NDC were dashed to another blood brother of the former President; Mr. Peter Mahama under the NDC. The man has since done a very poor jobs that left the roads washed off even before completion. On the Busunu-Daboya for instance, the contractor and his engineer have since admitted that they put in inappropriate culverts that exposed the road to floods. They have hurriedly run back to the said portion to cover up their poor job.

How any sane person will blame this on a government that has since paid almost every single certificate raised by Mr. Peter Mahama on that road is a misery.

At backyard of the former President, Bole-Bamboi Constituency, the Siripe-Dakrupe road that is near cut-off is one other shoddy job that has exposed the previous NDC. As heartless as the Mahama led NDC government was, that very road contract was awarded to a surrogate of the then Roads Minister, Hon. Inusah Fuseini. The said contractor succeeded in putting out substandard culverts that has seen the people of the area in perpetual agony till date. The Nana Addo government has since re-packaged the road for reconstruction.

The NDC in the Savannah Region appears to have forgotten that they left power not too long ago. They have forgotten so soon that Former President Mahama was MP, and all the way to Vice President and President over the same roads they are complaining about. They have enjoyed all the political sympathies of the people and had 8 good years to finish them if it was that easy to do it but failed. Let the NDC stop insulting the people of the Savannah Region.

The most illogical argument is when these noisy executives of the NDC claim the yearly ritual of floods into farm lands closer to streams and rivers was attributed to abandoned road projects. Such bizarre conclusions can only come from these perpetual cynics.

For the avoidance of doubt, there’s no single road that was started by the former President and his NDC that is left unattended to. May I reiterate some of the major roads that are ongoing as continued and new projects in the Region; Salaga-Bimbila, Salaga-Kpandai, Tamale-Salaga-Mankango, Bunjai-Fufulso
Daboya-Mankarigu-Mempeasem, Salaga Township, Damango Township, Kusowgu-Tulwe, Soma-Tuna, Sawla-Nakpala, Tolon-Daboya to mention but a few. In addition, 2 new bridges for Buipe and Yapei shall start soon in addition to the Daboya Bridge that is ongoing.

It is the anticipation of the Regional Party of the governing NPP in the Region, that our colleagues in the NDC may be jealous of the near perfect work H.E the President and his Vice have done and still doing in the Region, yet that should not provoke them into a “Do or Die” miscommunication. They must get focused and criticize on tangible issues with empirical evidence and not these unwholesome propaganda that has outlived its usefulness.

Thank You. THE END
