The Minister for Roads and Highways, Kwame Governs Agbodza, on Tuesday, May 12, 2026, led a joint inspection of key Big Push and priority road projects in the Western Region, accompanied by the Western Regional Minister, Hon. Joseph Nelson.
The tour covered the Takoradi–Agona Nkwanta dualisation project by Justmoh Construction, the 71.25km Elubo–Enchi Road by TIEC Construction, the Amoaku bridge in Amenfi West, and the Bawdie–Asankragua Road being executed by Asabea Construction.
At the 19km Bogoso–Prestea Road, the Minister expressed concern over poor progress on the project, awarded in 2025 but largely stalled. He subsequently directed the Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Highways Authority, Mallam Issah Ishak, to begin termination processes against contractor Black Oak for non-performance.
The inspection was also joined by the Deputy Minister for Highways, Alhassan Sayibu Suhuyini; Western North Regional Minister, Wilbert Petty Brentum; Members of Parliament for Amenfi West, Prestea–Huni Valley, and Aowin; and senior officials from the Ministry and Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies.
Government reaffirmed its commitment to delivering quality road infrastructure and ensuring accountability on all ongoing projects.
