Deputy Minister for Roads and Highways, Dr. Alhassan Sayibu Subuyini has disagreed with the claim by the previous government to have built over 13,000km of roads stressing that it could not have been possible.
“The claims by the previous government to have built 13,000km roads is discredited “, he said.
Speaking in an interview on GTV breakfast show on Wednesday, November 19, 2025, Dr. Suhuyini stated that the false 13,000km road construction claim by the previous administration if constructed could be likened from Ghana to London and even beyond.
He added that the breakdown in construction the previous government used included patching of potholes however the big push project which the current administration is currently handling is not just about road construction but will facilitate trade within Africa and the Sahelian countries.
The deputy roads Minister also lauded President Mahama’s big push initiative adding that the President has prioritized health, education and now infrastructure stating that the recently presented 2026 budget includes government committing to construct 200 new junior high schools, 200 new primary schools, and 200 new kindergartens across the country.
