Politics of Monday, 10 May 2021Source: www.ghanaweb.comThe Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Bernard Antwi Boasiako has stated that the Akufo-Addo led administration owes him about GHC100 million for road constructions pre-financed. According to Chairman Wontumi, he finances contracts through loan facilities he acquires from banks. Chairman Wontumi has accused Road’s Minister of not awarding him any contracts even though he is the only NPP man who has ventured into road construction. Mr Antwi Boasisko questioned why he is not awarded contracts but others like Messrs Jacob, Attachy Construction, and Kofi Job were awarded all the contracts. Chairman Wontumi noted that the road construction industry is a capital-intensive one for which he pays 10% to colleague contractors like Akwasi Addai Odike and Kofi Akpaloo to take over contracts awarded them.
