The State of our Roads!
Back in 2000 i used to regularly ply the Accra Kumasi road and leaving at night or early in the morning, it was a journey which consistently took less than two hours.
On one occasion i left for Bolga watched Kotoko play RTU and returned to Accra the same day…… Now this road has become treacherous to say the least.
Waiting for a large vehicle to come to Accra today took in excess of 6 hours… The road has become a movement deterrent unless you have absolutely no choice!
The effect on productivity and civil movement is horrendous. This is not a dig at either political party, both of whom are culpable for the current mess, i am just saddened that we appear worse off now than in 1999 when i started to use the road in earnest!
