President John Dramani Mahama

Speaking during a July 7 meeting with Ghana’s Council of State, Mahama stated the Ministry of Finance has allocated funds to address “a substantial portion” of arrears, enabling contractors to resume critical roadworks.

“The swift resumption of projects is key to economic growth and regional connectivity under our 24-hour economy agenda,” the President emphasized. Construction sector stakeholders welcomed the move, having long advocated for resolution of unpaid certificates and abandoned sites.

Separately, Mahama bid farewell to outgoing German Ambassador Daniel Krull at Jubilee House, praising his four-year term as “highly productive.” The President reaffirmed commitment to strengthening bilateral ties, particularly in economic development and security cooperation. He thanked Germany for supporting the Kofi Annan International Peacekeeping Training Centre and training Ghanaian security personnel.
