    Minority in Parliament led by the Member of Parliament for Bodi, Samson Ahi has slammed President Nana Akufo-Addo over 8,000-unit housing project set to be constructed in Pokuase.

    On Tuesday, August 1, President Nana Akufo-Addo cut sod for the construction of 8,000 affordable housing project after abandoning the Saglemi Housing project which was initiated in 2016 by former president John Mahama.

    In the light of this development, Mr. Samson Ahi described the Pokuase affordable housing project as illegal since it has no parliamentary approval.

    The MP for Bodi criticised the President Nana Addo for what he termed his flagrant disregard for due process.

    “This particular project is supposed to be laid in Parliament today, this had not been done which means the EPC agreement has not been approved in Parliament. So, if you have presented such a document in Parliament for approval, it has not even delayed yet we are there cutting-sod to commence work,” the former deputy minister for housing project fumed.

    He wondered if the rush by the president was a slap or disrespect to government structures.

    According to him, the Minority raised some important questions about the Pokuase affordable housing project and the agreement with EPC and government yesterday and it was expected to get approval by Parliament but the president in rush went ahead to cut sod for the project to begin.

    The Minority have described the Pokuase affordable housing project as illegal since it has no parliamentary approval.

    In a related news, President Nana Addo explained why he abandoned Mahama’s Saglemi Housing project to start a new housing project under his administration.

    According to the president, government would have accrued more debt had the Saglemi Housing Project been completed.

    He acknowledged the obstacles and delays that were encountered during the project’s execution and disclosed that the Ghana Police Service’s Criminal Investigations Division was looking into the project’s budget and scope of work, which would result in criminal court proceedings.
