The Fourth Estate @fourthestategh

2 weeks ago

Nine months after the Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources revoked the lease of a licensed mining company in Prestea-Huni Valley, the mine is now being fully operated by a group of illegal miners connected to the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC). Led by Ebenezer Amemegakpor, an NDC activist in the Prestea-Huni Valley Constituency, the illegal miners took over RMG Mining Company’s Apinto concession in March 2025 after National Security stormed the underground mine.

Kofi, l don't think this is accurate. Allocated $1bn ( out of estimated cost of $4bn) to it..not spent This is what l wrote a while ago..lt can guide you in your future communications Finance Minister, Ato Forson recently stated at a business forum organised by Ishmael Yamson and Associates that he has secured $1 billion of the nearly $4 billion required to complete the Accra-Kumasi highway. The first $500 million, he explained, comes from uncapping oil revenues—funds that will now be channelled directly into the project. The remaining $500 million is expected from mineral royalties. That leaves a funding gap of $3 billion. On the face of it, the promised delivery date of 2028 appears overly ambitious. A more cautious estimate, even assuming compensation claims are settled without undue delay might be 2031. If the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Roads are confident in their timeline, we would welcome the timely tendering of the project. We also urge the release of technical reports detailing cost-saving measures and the types of materials to be used. For example, emerging cement manufacturing technologies have been shown to reduce road construction costs by up to 60% compared to traditional methods, a potential game-changer that deserves serious evaluation. Pragmatically we should have at least four of our biggest construction companies working on the express highway. Finally please plublish the feasibility and cost-saving studies for the express highway.'-- Franklin Cudjoe

Sharing hate speech online doesn’t just stay online; it can escalate into real-life conflict in our communities. Before you post, check your facts and your tone. Let’s create a safer, more respectful information space. With support from the @opengovpart
