Asenso Boakye clarifies that the construction of Ejisu roads is not prompted by the upcoming by-election

Minister of Roads and Highways, Francis Asenso Boakye, has dismissed allegations linking recent infrastructure developments in the Ejisu constituency to the upcoming by-election.

Following the passing of Member of Parliament, Dr. John Kumah, the Electoral Commission has scheduled a by-election for April 30.

Amid accusations against the New Patriotic Party (NPP) of orchestrating significant infrastructure projects, including road construction, to influence voters, Asenso Boakye clarified that the ongoing construction predates the election cycle.

He stressed the proactive role of the late MP in facilitating these projects and emphasized their non-partisan nature.

Asenso Boakye assured constituents that his role is merely to inspect ongoing initiatives, reiterating that these developments are part of the Ministry’s regular agenda and have nothing to do with the upcoming by-election.

“In fact, the MP who passed on was very instrumental in making sure that all these projects were designed and constructed. It is just unfortunate that he passed on. My job is to come and inspect what is going on here. So be rest assured that this is not a by-election project. These are the normal other projects that the ministry has been implementing.”
