The Ghana Chamber of Construction Industry is accusing the Minister of Roads and Highways, Kwasi Amoako-Attah of stifling the growth of the sector.
According to the Chamber, the Minister’s lack of transparency in his operations coupled with the decision to pay contractors based on favouritism rather than a first-come first-serve basis are to blame.
Contractors in Ghana have for years been lamenting the government’s non-payment for projects executed.
