The Ashanti Region Chairman of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) Bernard Anwti Boasiako (Chairman Wontumi) has pleaded with President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to speed up the construction of the Suame Interchange in the region.
This, he said, would enable the party to win more votes in the region in the 2024 general elections.
“We are only begging the President to ensure that work begins on the Suame interchange.
“We know he cannot fulfill all his promises but at least he must at least start work on this project so that people vote for him in 2024,” he said at a media engagement on Monday May 29.
In November 2022, President Akufo-Addo cut the sod for the construction of the four-tier interchange at Suame in Kumasi.
The Suame Interchange project consists of a four-tier interchange at the current Suame Roundabout, with overpasses at the Abrepo, Krofrom, Anomangye, Magazine New Road and Abusuakruwa junctions.
When completed, it will be the first four-tier interchange in the Ashanti Region and the second in the country, after the Pokuase Interchange in the Greater Accra Region.
