The projects, which are currently in use, included school blocks, Community Health Planning Systems (CHPS) Compounds, court buildings and office complexes.

The Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) of Jaman South, Andrews Bediako, told Ghanadistricts.com during an interview at the NALAG conference in Sunyani that he decided to complete abandoned projects because of its strategic importance to the people in the area.

Mr Bediako said he took criticism from his own ‘party people’ for not initiating new projects under the current administration.

He said, despite the criticism, he completed abandoned projects, “bearing in mind that there must be a paradigm shift from the norm so as to achieve value for money for investment being made with the country’s resources.”
