President John Dramani Mahama has called on Ghanaians to cooperate with contractors working on road projects across the country.

Speaking at the launch of the Big Push programme in Ho, he noted that ongoing construction works may cause traffic congestion and inconvenience to drivers and road users.

However, he urged the public to exercise patience, stressing that the projects are necessary to improve the nation’s road network.

“This is a period where we may have to endure some discomfort,” Mahama said.

“But it is also a time to sacrifice for greater gains, because quality roads will enhance daily activities and drive economic development.”

He further assured citizens that the government is committed to ensuring the timely completion of the projects and appealed to communities affected by the construction to support the contractors in their work.
