‘Do you want me to be happy with this poor performance?’ – Bono East Minister fumes over Kintampo market project with less than 1% work done
The Bono East Regional Minister, Francis Owusu Antwi, has issued a strong warning to the contractor handling the Kintampo North 24-Hour Economy Market project, vowing to terminate the contract over what he describes as shockingly poor performance.
Bono East Regional Minister Francis Owusu Antwi expressed his ire over the minimal progress on the Kintampo North 24-Hour Economy Market project, warning that the contract could be terminated. During an inspection, Antwi noted the project's shockingly poor performance with less than one percent of the work completed. He questioned the contractor, "Do you want me to be happy with this poor performance?" and stated it was the most disappointing among contractors working on similar projects in the Bono East Region.
The Regional Coordinating Council was also informed of the warning. Antwi instructed the contractor to be served a formal warning letter and emphasized that the contractor's lax attitude would not be tolerated. Kintampo North's Municipal Chief Executive, Isaac Donkor, also voiced his disappointment, noting that the slow pace of work was worrying and that residents eagerly awaited the project's benefits.
The 24-Hour Economy Market project is part of the government's initiative to enhance trade, create jobs, and stimulate economic activity beyond regular business hours.
