The Ministry of Works and Housing has reaffirmed the government’s commitment to completing numerous abandoned affordable housing projects across the country.
Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, the sector minister, announced that the government is collaborating with private developers to finalize these projects. Following an inspection of a housing project in Adenta, Accra, Mr. Oppong Nkrumah emphasized in a media interview that the government will ensure that the resources invested in constructing these affordable housing projects are not wasted.
“I’m sure you have followed the point we have made not to leave projects abandoned. And so, we are going through an exercise that seeks to ensure that many of these projects that are described as abandoned projects, we can resume work and finish them,” he stated.
Mr. Oppong Nkrumah highlighted the progress made on the Saglemi Housing project and mentioned that work would soon resume on other projects, including former President J.A. Kufuor’s affordable housing project in Akwadum, Koforidua.
“We have made progress on the Saglemi Housing project. I also mentioned that we will be going to Koforidua, where the state housing company once again is picking up on one of those projects, former President J.A. Kufuor’s affordable housing project, around Akwadum. They have made progress, and they will be resuming work shortly,” he added.
