Agbodza: Roads Ministry reviewing contracts to track projects

Roads and Highways Minister Governs Kwame Agbodza says the Ministry is currently undertaking a review of all contracts signed by the Ministry.

According to the Adaklu MP, the review is aimed at identifying active and inactive contracts.

Speaking on the floor of Parliament, Kwame Agbodza said the review will save the country some money.

“We are currently undergoing an exercise at the Ministry to rationalize the portfolio to tell exactly whether every contract awarded is active.

“On record, some contracts are awarded, and the contractors never turned up on site, and every contract has a termination clause.

“If a contract is awarded and for two or three years the contractor never turned up on site, it is difficult to determine whether that is a valid contract,” he said.
