  "summary": "President John Dramani Mahama is set to receive a 175.6-kilometre cleared right-of-way for the Accra-Kumasi Expressway on September 14, signalling a significant step towards the commencement of construction. The handover ceremony will occur in Kwaso near Ejisu, where the land was prepared by the 48 Engineer Regiment of the Ghana Armed Forces for the ambitious 198.7-kilometre project. Minister of State in charge of Government Communications, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, highlighted the project as the largest capital investment by any Ghanaian government, stating that the clearance of the right-of-way is a crucial milestone ahead of the construction phase. The expressway aims to greatly enhance road connectivity between Ghana’s two largest cities once completed.",
