Bono East Regional Minister Francis Owusu Antwi has expressed significant frustration over the slow progress of the 24-hour economy market project in Kintampo Municipality, noting that less than one percent of the work has been completed. Antwi visited the site alongside his team and criticized the contractor S.D.H. for their poor performance, stating they were the worst among contractors working on similar projects in the region.
Antwi has taken disciplinary action against the contractor, issuing warning letters and demanding further improvement. However, Kintampo North Municipal Chief Executive Isaac Donkor also highlighted the project's poor performance, describing it as the lowest among the 11 districts and municipalities in Bono East Region. Donkor reported that workers were only present due to the Regional Minister's visit, and the little work done on site is causing concern.
Both officials emphasized that the contractor will not be allowed to disappoint the people of Kintampo and government, stressing the importance of completing the project to boost economic activity.
