Assin North , the Deputy General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress(NDC), Mustapha Gbande, believes deserves more than government has done. He calls government’s efforts at constructing new roads in the area insufficient for securing the victory that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) so much desires.

Speaking about the recently commissioned Assin Fosu to Assin Praso stretch, which spans 31.2 kilometres and connects Ahwian Nkwanta in the Ashanti Region to Yamoransa in the Central Region, Mr. Gbande described in an interview with Selorm Adonoo on the Eyewitness News the construction works in the area as having little-to-no significance to improving the livelihoods of the constituents.
“It’s good news for the people of Ghana, that this non-performing government has at least commissioned the road. I have plied the road and it’s a beautiful road. What does this road mean to the people? The people cannot move their cocoa produce to the main city of Assin North.
“The roads leading to the villages have not been tarred. One will question if what the government has done will put food on the table for the people of Assin North. We want to see Ghanaians being disburdened, and see the standard of living in the lives of the people of Assin North improved.

He further asserted that the most important thing that government should consider in Assin North is the provision of fertilizers, farm inputs, and many more for the people.
“We are talking about the majority of Assin North who this road does not mean anything to them. 80% of the people there are farmers, they cannot boast of farm inputs, fertilizers, high yields, nor buy medicine. As far as I’m concerned, this is a very useless government, and so if they have done this road, they deserve some commendation for completing the road. How that this translates into the people’s lives ?”
