Mahama has not abandoned any inherited project – Essikado Ketan MP

Deputy Health Minister Dr Grace Ayensu-Danquah has strongly defended President John Dramani Mahama's record on government projects inherited from previous administrations. She insists that his administration has not abandoned any inherited policies or projects, pointing to the successful continuation and strengthening of initiatives such as the Free Senior High School (Free SHS) programme.

Dr Ayensu-Danquah cited the Agenda 111 hospital project, noting that President Mahama had pledged to complete 35 of the facilities, and highlighted a current construction site in Ahanta West as evidence of the government's commitment. She urged the public to give the government sufficient time to fulfill its commitments, emphasizing that President Mahama has been in office for approximately one year and eight months.

Dr Ayensu-Danquah advised that assessments of the administration's work should consider the time available to implement its plans, rather than comparing it to the longer periods of previous governments. She also defended the President's stance on the National Cathedral project, explaining that it was a personal promise made by former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, not a national policy, and should be financed voluntarily by Christians and development partners.
