Dr. Anthony Nsiah-Asare, the President’s advisor on health, has stated that the government will cancel the contracts of contractors who don’t finish the Agenda 111 project by the deadline.
He stated that contractors were responsible for making sure the deadlines outlined in the contract were met.
Dr. Anthony Nsiah-Asare mentioned in an interview that the government has contributed at least 10% of the resources required for contractors to start working.
According to him, this will enable these contractors to move quickly and meet their deadlines.
“We (government) will not shy away from cancelling or terminating any contract which is not going very well,” he said.
“This is a project where we have at least given at least 10 percent mobilization to all the contractors who have started work and I believe they should start mobilizations to get enough materials and work very fast,†he added.
Agenda 111 project falls under government’s plan to build 111 districts and regional hospitals across the country.
An amount of $100 million was set aside for the commencement funding for the project.
