Minister for Works, Housing, and Water Resources, Kenneth Gilbert Adjei, has revealed the government’s zero-tolerance for stalled projects, warning contractors against delays that hinder national development.
Speaking during his first official tour of housing and sea defense projects in the Greater Accra Region, the minister reaffirmed the John Mahama administration’s commitment to ensuring timely completion of all ongoing initiatives
Having assumed office just two weeks ago, Mr. Adjei explained that stepping out of the office was necessary to assess whether the progress on the ground matched what he had reviewed in ministry files.
“So far, from what I’ve observed, some projects are behind schedule,” he noted. He assured the public that measures would be put in place to prevent delays and ensure all projects reach completion.
“We will not tolerate any delays in our projects going forward. If we provide timelines, we must adhere to them”.
“The ministry also believes that we should not have stalled projects; if we start something, we should be able to finish it.” he emphasized.
Addressing sea defense projects across the country, Mr. Adjei reiterated the government’s dedication to protecting coastal communities and safeguarding Ghana’s coastline. While acknowledging the high costs associated with these initiatives—currently financed by the Government of Ghana—he revealed plans to explore alternative funding sources to sustain and expand ongoing efforts.
