  "account": "The Upper West Parliamentary Caucus, led by Dr. Sebastian Sandaare, recently inspected roads as part of President John Dramani Mahama's \"The Big Push\" infrastructure initiative. The Caucus praised contractors for their work and called for those behind schedule to speed up. The project was awarded to five contractors, with P&W Ghanem Limited receiving special praise. Lawra MP Bede A. Ziedeng commended the contractor for its \"neat\" and \"fast\" work, while Nadowli-Kaleo MP Anthony Sumah Mwinkaara noted that the contractor had completed the prime on one side and was two kilometers away from completing the second seal. Wa West MP Supt. Retired Peter Lanchene Toobu expressed confidence in P&W Ghanem's ability to meet deadlines, stating that if all contractors performed like this, there would be no complaints about delays in the region. Caucus members emphasized the need for quality work and timely completion, as the roads have been a source of frustration for the people of Upper West.",
