The Works and Housing Minister Kojo Oppong Nkrumah has denied claims that, the government is busily commissioning projects with few days to elections in a bid to attract and canvas votes on December 7, 2024.
Speaking on Channel One TV on Thursday, November 21, the Vice Chairman of the NPP Manifesto Committee, stressed that these developments demonstrate the government’s longstanding commitment to infrastructure growth across the country. He added that the recent commissioning of infrastructure projects ahead of the 2024 general elections highlights the government’s solid track record, not an attempt to influence voters.
Mr Oppong Nkrumah explained that the newly inaugurated projects are part of a broader strategy aimed at fostering sustained development rather than a last-minute appeal for electoral support. He insisted that the government’s efforts have consistently focused on delivering high-quality infrastructure to improve citizens’ lives.
He assured the public that the timing of the project’s completion was incidental and not influenced by the electoral calendar. Mr Oppong Nkrumah emphasized that these initiatives reflect the NPP administration’s vision for steady progress and growth across Ghana, assuring that infrastructure development will remain a priority beyond the election period.
