Haruna Iddrisu, the Member of Parliament for Tamale South, has assured that President-elect John Mahama will complete all viable projects initiated by the outgoing government once he assumes office.
Speaking on TV3’s Ghana Decides, Haruna Iddrisu emphasized that projects started under the current administration will not be abandoned but will be completed after a thorough assessment to ensure value for money.
“Every good project started by this government will be completed under President Mahama.
Consistent with the directive principles of state policy, he will execute and complete these projects, subject to a value-for-money analysis and a clear understanding of what went into them—whether it was a hospital or a school block,” he assured.
However, Haruna Iddrisu clarified that the completion of the National Cathedral, initiated by the incumbent government, would not be funded with public resources under Mahama’s administration.
“If the decision is made to continue the National Cathedral, it won’t be done with state resources. President Mahama is smarter than that.
“If this country truly needs a National Cathedral, President-elect John Dramani Mahama will sit with the church to discuss the way forward, but it will not involve state funds or the wastage we are currently witnessing,” he stated.
