A new comment through the Minister of Roads Kwasi Amoako-Atta has got people asking yourself if the government of the day can not do anything for the people if the controversial E-Levy is just not passed or approved. Based on the Minister, his ministry is definitely looking forward for the E-levy to become passed so he can have the ability to pay road contractors for his or her works.

He or she said: “…E-levy comes, all of us get our first discuss into the roads sector. Inside a very short time, all exceptional contractors’ debts will be compensated and you can work more with this country. And we expect you to definitely speak, you are going to be the immediate beneficiaries and any severe government will not joke along with Contractors because the construction sector is where from the unskilled towards the skilled people are employed. ” Mr Amoako-Atta continued that will “If you want me in order to circulate very well, pay Contractors”.

We have been saying this particular all the time and you are Contractors; you understand the cost of even constructing the kilometre of road. If you get GHc 68million normally the whole year, January in order to December, you are Contractors, based on the ground condition, if you don’t be careful, that amount can’t also construct 10 kilometers associated with road”
