MT do you really believe that anybody would just get up and want to construct road without informing the local assembly? Really. Its the frustrations you go through, meanwhile they have no plans to fix that road
Do we need permission to clean our streets gutters too?
I agree with the Local Government Head's view of what the rules are but what I detest is the actual practice where crooks in the Assemblies are asking that they be given the money to construct such roads or else they would wi ...

Well spoken
What a rotten disease in Ghana to get anyone to anything for the better of good without getting a bribe to do anything ,when it's their job to do so.
Exactly the issue we are having in this country
Totally agree with you.
Yes, that is the law. The same law requires the authorities to meet with and get the buy-in of the eventual beneficiaries before projects are embarked on, is this done? So the authorities cannot also ''just get up'' and start ...

You have a point but why was the assembly finding it difficult to approve the request from the local people to allow them contruct their own road. They could have given them the specifications
Yes
The local government should stop the buzstop boys from clearing the gutters, which is the responsibility of the assemblies.
Both sre st fault most of the time. When someone is developing some portion of road you don't just go and arrest the person like s criminal. Go explain things and regularise things and peace prevail. On the other hand why won ...

Concert country. because of small chop chop it has to pass through Assembly before. nonsense.
So the assembly should take up the challenge to help him go through the processes.
I always say that Eng. Dr. Nana Ato Arthur deserve to be the president or vice president of Ghana.
His knowledge and commitment to work is superb.
Knowledge and commitment to work are not the most important. The key quality required is character.
KONOGO KAYA GOVERNMENT!!!
Then come and tarr the roads for us la !
Just allow them but supervise the work.

Of course corrupt Ato Arthur wants the .only so he can decide how , when and how bad the road can be built so he can take the excess money. All these idiots need to be lined up at Teshie firing range.
Those helping our society are rather being arrested. The GALAMSEYERS destroying our society are operating freely. Concert party country
