The NPP administration and Minister for Roads and Highways Kwasi Amoako Atta have come under fire from the Ghanaian televangelist Prophet Dr. Kofi Oduro over their decision to stop collecting road tolls.
Hon. Amoako-Atta and his accomplices wouldn’t get away with costing the state money, according to the head pastor and founder of Alabaster International Ministries.
During his sermon at his church (Alabaster House Chapel) on Sunday, the dynamic and prolific preacher made a strong claim that the current generation would take matters into their own hands and ensure that Amoako-Atta was imprisoned for his careless and reckless decision to end road toll collection in the nation.
In addition to criticizing President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, Prophet Dr. Oduro, who preaches the Bible with authority, also condemned several of his leadership decisions, including burning large pieces of equipment like excavators. He asserted that the attitudes of the President and certain of his appointees continue to drag the nation well below the surface.
“I’ve sat down to analyze opportunities that came to us and we wasted it… The opportunities that God has given this nation is overwhelming, gold, bauxite, diamonds, timber, we have all kinds of woods, yet we are suffering.
“Let me tell you some of the wastes of this nation; the re-opening of the tollbooths, for 1 solid year, tracks from Burkina Faso, Togo, other places driving on our streets for free, what a waste!
“And then another decision; we arrest people during galamsey and we pour petrol on their excavators and burn them, you don’t even have graders to grade roads, wise thing is to take the excavators, sell them and use the money to buy a grader or payloader and use it to work, there are many Assemblies who don’t have the excavators, give it to them; to burn an excavator and you have bad roads? what a waste!
“I’m telling this government and the opposition, both of you; this generation will chase you, I’m standing on this alter and you are all witnesses, one day, a people will come and bring this Roads Minister and all his accomplices to jail, you’ll say I told you; there’s a heartless generation, you may be an old-man dying but they’ll bundle you and throw you into jail for causing financial loss to the state,” the outspoken preacher said in a live video.
Prophet Dr. Oduro, therefore, pleaded with the President to assist his cabinet in making the most of the time and the season, as in his opinion, they [Akufo-Addo and his ministers] would never be able to recapture the chance they currently have.
