Next NDC Gov’t To Complete Juapong-Abutia-Sokode Road In Memory Of Dzifa Attivor

The next NDC administration will complete the construction of the Juapong-Abutia-Sokode road, which was lobbied for by the late Mrs. Dzifa Attivor, says former President John Dramani Mahama.

“Daavi Dzifa was on my neck for the construction of the Sokode-Juapong Road which was eventually awarded and started, but the NPP abandoned it and I promise you today, that we will construct the road if we get back to power,” said Mr. Mahama at the funeral of the late former Transport Minister on Saturday.

The road was the initiative of the erstwhile Mahama government but has since been abandoned by the Akufo-Addo government.

Former President John Mahama also praised the late Madam Dzifa Attivor for the outstanding contribution to the transportation sector in the country.

The former Transport Minister, he said was instrumental in the upgrade of the Kotoka International Airport, Tema Harbour, Takoradi Airport, and the airports in Kumasi and Ho.

On Saturday a requiem service was held at the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, Ghana, at Abutia Teti as part of the final funeral rites for the late Transport Minister.

Mrs. Attivor died in the early hours of Tuesday, November 16, after a short illness.
