Sod cutting ceremonies in Ghana is like cutting pawpaw. Our leaders cut sod without funding for the project, the designs of the project, and let alone a building permit. In 2018, president Akufo Addo cut sod for a 10-year cashew development plan in Wenchi. This package includes a cashew processing factory. The sod cutting ceremony was performed at the same ceremony grounds due to time, and we couldn’t visit the site of the supposed project. Today, as I speak, it is not clear whether the land is still available.<\/p>\n

12th September, Nana Akufo Addo cut sod for a 30 million euros water project in Techiman only God knows the level of this water project. On the eve of the 2020 elections, president Akufo Addo toured throughout the country to cut sod for roads to affirm his 2020 year of roads. Where are the roads?<\/p>\n

I personally accompanied former president Agyenkum Kuffour to cut sod at the Techiman senior high school, the project had not yet seen a completion. Several projects of the late professor John Atta Mills and John Dramani Mahama had still not seen any headway, yet we keep cutting sods because sod cutting is as easy as cutting pawpaw.<\/p>\n

All of our previous governments did these cheap sod-cutting ceremonies by spending huge and unnecessary taxpayer money without any result.<\/p>\n

Another sad waste of resources is commissioning, our political leaders spend more cash than most of the projects that they commission because it is also cheap, like cutting pawpaw.<\/p>\n
