The Minority in Parliament has described plans by the Akufo-Addo-led government to re-inaugurate work on phase II of the Kumasi Airport as a “needless waste of time and scarce national resources.”
According to the opposition, the sod cutting ceremony had already been executed by former president John Dramani Mahama in December 2016, hence President Akufo-Addo should go ahead to commence the project rather than repeat the process.
In a statement signed by MP for Adaklu and Ranking Member on Road and Transport Committee of Parliament, Kwame Governs Agbodza, the contractor hired for the project under the NDC is the same one who has been retained, the more reason the sod cutting is unnecessary.
The release further stressed the move is intentional on the part of the NPP government to take undue credit for the work started by the opposition.
“The conduct smacks of desperation and is symptomatic of a government that has nothing to show for the billions of Ghana Cedis it has borrowed since January, 2017”.

NDC MPS SHOULD BE PUT ON A TABLE AND BE GIVEN 24 LASHES EACH AT THEIR BACK FOR BEING SOO TIMID IN CONTRIBUTING TO NATIONAL ISSUES. WHAT IS AGBODZA SAYING NEEDLESS? NDC SPENT 29 MILLION DOLLARS FOR FIXING LIGHTS ONLY WHILE THE PHASE TWO WHICH IS THE MAIN INT.AIRPORT IS COSTING 66 MILLION EUROS.CANT NPP PROBE THOSE WHO DID THAT KALABULE WORK?
NDC you think Akuffo Addo is like your CONMAN MAHAMA.The President will make sure the work is done and there is no CORRUPT UNDER DEALS like the way you guys were doing your stuff.#STOPBLEACHINGNOW #NDCEXECUTIVES
Mahama cut sod on 5th December 2016 two days to elections and u want us to take it serious ahh Please give us a break
Granted that Mahama cut the sod to commence the phase ll of the Kumasi airport project. Can the MP also state how much funds his boss left for the project? Why this clamouring?
MAHAMA CUT SOD FOR NOTHING. HE CUT SOD AND DID NOTHING. THAT IS SAKAWA. AKUFFO ADDO IS CUTTING SOD AND HAS PROMISED TO FINISHED IN 24 MONTHS. PLEASE, MINORITY KEEP QUIET AND LEAVE KUMASI PEOPLE TO JUDGE AFTER 24 MONTHS. FOR ME, MUBARAK OF MINORITY IS AFRAID LOSING HIS SEAT. KUMASI AIRPORT, LIES BETWEEN MANHYIA NORTH AND ASAWASE CONSTITUENCIES. IT LOOKS LIKE THE TRANSFORMATION SHALL BECOME SO GLARE TO THESE CONSTITUENCIES THAT IT WOULD LEAD TO MUBARAK TO LOSE HIS SEAT. THE CRY OF THE MINORITY IS A CRY FOR MUBARAK.
