Mahama to government: Halt plans of building constituency offices for MPs

In a Facebook post, Mahama said the government should focus more on job creation and national development

The former president John Mahama has advised the government to put on hold plans for the construction of constituency offices for MPs in the wake of the economic turmoil.

Mahama is proposing the use of district assemblies and other government buildings for such purposes in the interim.

In a Facebook post, Mahama said the government should focus more on job creation and national development.

“The proposed building of constituency offices for MPs should be shelved until the economy is out of the woods. In the interim, office space can be found within the district assemblies or other government buildings for the purpose,” he said.

“In our current economic state, public funds must go into projects that are necessary and which meet the pressing needs of our people in the communities. Such projects must have tangible and measurable impact on job creation and national development,” Mahama said.
