“The Akufo-Addo administration has made significant investments in transformative projects. We’ve undertaken over 200 initiatives in Zongo development, impacting communities nationwide. Our investment in Technical and Vocational Education (TVET) stands out, with over 6 billion Ghana Cedis allocated over the past 7 years – the largest by any government in the Fourth Republic. We’ve also made TVET free, expanding access to quality education. Under our Development Authority, 1,609 projects have been completed, while the Northern Development Authority has executed over 304 projects. These are not trivial ‘Guinea fowl’ projects, but tangible, impactful initiatives driving real development and progress”, he said.
