The National Organiser of the New Patriotic Party,Sammi Awuku has dismissed John Mahama’s claim to inject GHC 10billion Infrastructure project when he is elected as a president in 2020.
Addressing the media at Alisa Hotel ,Mr.Awukuku said,
“It appears Mr. Mahama is very fond of figure 10 billion. Ghanaians must dismiss this as a total pipe down. In 2013, working with his good friend, Roland Aganbri amidst the great fanfare, Mr. Mahama went to cut the sod for the US$10 billion Hope City project promising thousands of jobs in the process not knowing he had not even acquired the land for the project.”
“When he also says he is going to build projects, Ghanaians should be extremely careful and be worried because of the inflated cost of these projects. He is not interested in the outcome of the project and the impact it will have on Ghanaians neither is he interested in value for money. So when he says he is going to invest billions in infrastructure, Ghanaians must treat it not as a promise but as a threat, not as an infrastructural solution but a financial scandal. It must not draw you closer towards him but borrow his legs and run away with it”he added.
