Accra-Kumasi Expressway: 48 Engineer Regiment can deliver if well resourced – Political Lecturer
A lecturer in political marketing at the University of Education, Winneba, Dr Bernard Tutu-Boahene, says he is confident the 48 Engineer Regiment can deliver its assigned work on the Accra-Kumasi Expressway on time if adequately resourced.
Dr Bernard Tutu-Boahene, a political marketing lecturer at the University of Education in Winneba, has expressed confidence in the 48 Engineer Regiment of the Ghana Armed Forces to complete the Accra-Kumasi Expressway project on schedule, provided they are adequately resourced. This optimism came after President John Mahama appointed the regiment as a major subcontractor for the project.
Dr Tutu-Boahene highlighted the regiment's impressive performance thus far, as they had cleared the project's right-of-way in just 19 weeks, one week ahead of the originally set 20-week deadline. Despite this, he emphasized the importance of providing the regiment with sufficient resources to ensure their success on this and future projects.
He expressed belief that well-resourced units, such as the 48 Engineer Regiment, could deliver significant benefits not only for specific highway projects but also for the overall reduction of construction costs in Ghana. Dr Tutu-Boahene described the regiment's involvement in the Accra-Kumasi Expressway project as a positive step, taking into account their track record of delivering results even under resource constraints.
