The member of Parliament of Essikado-Ketan, Joe Ghartey has written to the Youth and Sports Ministry requesting for information about the renovation works ongoing at the Sekondi Sports Stadium.
The lawmaker is requesting for the information after the Finance Minister, Ken Ofori Atta shockingly stated in the 2022 Budget Statement that the edifice is ninety percent complete.[ads2]
Ken Ofori Atta received several backlashes from the media in the Western Region for not crosschecking the current state of the stadium before stipulating it in the budget statement.[ads3]
However, Hon. Joe Ghartey has requested the Youth and Sports Ministry to furnish him with details of the rehabilitation exercise ongoing at the stadium, as the edifice is situated within his constituency.
