Elected on the ticket of the NDC, for the third consecutive time, Madam Ocloo said the constituency had struggled for development in the last eight years with regard to road network, agriculture, tourism and job creation.

Speaking in an interview, the MP-elect said the era of struggles and despair was over with John Dramani Mahama to take over the affairs of the nation.

The Constituency has a road network totaling about 306km. It has one first class road which links Tema through Afienya to Akosombo.

The constituency has six second class roads and about 28 feeder roads.

“Most of the feeder roads are not motorable, especially during the raining season, it is disastrous. I used the Asutuare Junction road to Osuwem and it was terrible.

Due to the poor nature of the roads, vehicles have no option than to run at a tortoise speed, thus, exposing travellers to armed robbery attacks,” a resident said.

Madam Ocloo said: “With President Mahama on my side, I can assure you that all roads within the Shai-Osudoku will be constructed. About 99.9 per cent of the development in the constituency was done by the NDC.”

“Now that President Mahama has won the 2024 December election, I can assure you that there’s going to be a massive development and the people will see progress,” she said.
