The government has awarded road projects to the tune of 40 billion cedis, and we have not got a penny [to pay the contractors].”

The legislator stated that last month, the Minister of Roads and Highways, Kwasi Amoako-Attah, presented a document to parliament stating that over 4,200 kilometres of roads have been completed.
