Govt not committed to agenda 111 project – Minority

The Minority in Parliament has raised concerns about the delay in the commencement of work on government’s agenda 111 projects in parts of the Ashanti Region.

The Minority says despite the payment of about $1 million to the contractor assigned to the Kwabenakwa district hospital in the Obuasi East municipality, not even a foundation has been laid.

Speaking to journalists during a visit to the proposed site for the Akrofuom district hospital, the Ranking Member on the Health Committee of Parliament, Kwabena Mintah Akandoh says the government is not committed to the successful completion of the projects.

“Agenda 111 was supposed to be completed in 12 months. It was later changed to 18 months. The whole procurement process around it is bizarre. How the contract was even awarded is even questionable.”
