The District Chief Executive (DCE) for Agona East in the Central Region has revealed how the John Mahama-led administration awarded a contract for good roads to be destroyed in the Gomoa East area.<\/p>\n
According to Dennis .A. Frimpong, who says the move was politically motivated, majority of the roads which were in good condition were all destroyed together with the bad ones.<\/p>\n
\u201cA contract was awarded in 2016 for the contractor to destroy roads on the orders of the then government. Most of the roads were in good condition but the government allowed the contractor to destroy the roads all because of votes,\u201d he alleged.<\/p>\n
Mr Frimpong, speaking on Adom FM\u2019s morning show \u2018Dwaso Nsem\u2018 on Tuesday, said the contractor since 2016 has failed to report to work because the then government failed to pay him.<\/p>\n
He noted that though the New Patriotic Party (NPP) government has paid half of the money to the contractor, the roads are still the same.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe cannot control the contractor because the NPP government was not the one that awarded contract so we just had to terminate the contract,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
He said the government has awarded fresh contracts and work will soon commence on the Agona roads.<\/p>\n
