Govt to provide MMDAs equipment for road construction – Bawumia

Vice President Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia has announced the government's plan to equip Metropolitan, Municipal, and District Assemblies (MMDAs) with earth-moving equipment for road construction under the District Road Improvement Programme (D.R.I.P).

Funded by the District Assembly Common Fund and donor partners, DRIP aims to address infrastructure challenges at the local level.

Speaking at a rally in Wulensi, Northern Region, Dr. Bawumia revealed that equipment such as excavators, backhoes, wheel loaders, compact rollers, and tipper trucks have been procured and will be distributed to every district, empowering them to improve their roads independently.
