Ejisu MP secures Asphaltic Plant to fix deplorable roads in his constituency
The Member of Parliament (MP) for Ejisu, John Ampontuah Kumah, has taken a step further in addressing poor road networks in communities within the Ejisu constituency.
A partnership between the Ejisu club 100 and Sogood contractors has secured a new asphaltic plant to help address community roads in Ejisu in a more sustainable manner.
He admitted the challenges that Ghanaians and his constituents faced as they had to grapple with the poor road network in their daily activities.
Roads in communities within the Ejisu constituency like Achiase, Akokoamong, Ekyem, and other areas are bumpy, dusty, and muddy whenever there is a downpour, and road users usually find it difficult commuting.
He took to his Facebook page to make the announcement.
“When it comes to road construction, we are faced with the following challenges nationally; it is centrally controlled, poor supervision, poor quality of work, and lack of maintenance. I sincerely believe we can reduce the cost of construction of community roads to achieve quality long-lasting roads if we can decentralize the construction of roads to the Municipal and District levels while the central government handles the major highways. Ejisu club 100 in partnership with Sogood contractors has secured a new asphaltic plant to help address community roads in Ejisu in a more sustainable manner.”
He further added that the project is also being carried out in partnership with the Engineering Department of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, as well as the Building and Roads Research Institute at Fumesua in the Ejisu municipality.
