Ghana, under former president John Mahama, after spending an amount 278million dollars on the Building the new Terminal 3 at the Kotoka Airport has seen the facility partly flooded after a downpour, MyNewsGh.com has learnt.
The Terminal 3 project was financed from credit raised by the Ghana Civil Aviation Authority on its own balance sheet with no sovereign guarantee or public charge to its debt stock, Mahama had boasted when it was started.
A Turkish company, MAPA Construction and Trade Company was the main contractor.
Controversial New Patriotic Party Member of Parliament for Assin Central Kennedy Agyapong early this year accused the former President Mahama administration of inflating the cost of the Kotoka International Airport Terminal 3 project, as MyNewsGh.com reported at the time.
According to the MP, 278 million dollars for one project is way outrageous, and only serves to show the thievery of the Mahama administration.
“I deliberately went to count the hangars, just seven. 278 million, the things it can do at the airport is not what they did,” he said.
“Do you know what 278 million dollars can do? These guys are greedy,” he said on Adom T.V’s Badwam.
With the flooding episode, many Ghanaians have been left in shock, making Kennedy Agyapong feel vindicated. More soon.
