The former Western North Regional Minister, Joojo Rocky Obeng, has touted significant infrastructure achievements during his time in office, stating that more than 600 kilometers of roads were constructed under his leadership.

He pointed to key road projects that transformed transportation across the region, asserting that his tenure marked a turning point for communities long burdened by poor infrastructure.

“One of the things that people in the Western North will associate in terms of infrastructure to me is that under my tenure we constructed not less than 600km of road,” he stated.

He listed major projects such as the Enchi to Dadieso stretch—once described as impassable—which was fully rehabilitated during his administration. Other completed roads include the Sefwi-Wiawso town roads, the Sefwi Boako to Ahafo Sankore road, and the Bibiani town roads.

“Awaso town road is under construction, but we had done some massive earth work,” he added, noting that the groundwork laid under his leadership paved the way for continued development.

Mr Obeng also highlighted work done on the Dadieso to Juaboso road, emphasising that both trunk and town roads saw unprecedented attention during his tenure.

“These are all trunk roads, then some of the town roads that we did,” he said.
