General News of Wednesday, 19 August 2020Source: www.ghanaweb.com'We are not building classroom blocks' - Joe Ghartey to people criticising delays in rail projectplay videoMinister for Railways Development, Joe GharteyMinister for Railways Development, Joe Ghartey, has parried criticisms that a massive rail infrastructural improvement promised by the Nana Akufo-Addo government is not happening as fast as expected. According to the Minister, rail projects are capital intensive and usually involve a lot of processes and must cover a very long stretch to make the long term impact that they are expected to make. It is not a three classroom block that if we don’t like where the classroom is we can break it down. It is a long term project that we are building and I am telling you that we have done more in these four years than any government has done in four years,” he told journalists. Joe Ghartey is confident that the Akufo-Addo government will deliver on its promise to revamp the rail sector in Ghana.
