We need close to Ghc150 million to complete Krofrom Market – KMA Boss Zuba

Mayor of Kumasi, Richard Ofori Agyemang Boadi, fondly known as King Zuba, has revealed that the government will require 150 million cedis to finish the Kumasi Krofrom Market as promised by President John Mahama

“We will need close to Ghc 150 million to fully complete the Krofrom Market as promised by President John Mahama,” King Zuba emphasized.

The promising Kumasi Mayor made these confirmations in an interview at the back of the President’s promise to complete various stalling projects in the Ashanti Region that includes the abandoned Krofrom Market

Speaking to Newsmen in Kumasi ion Thursday, July 17,2015, he underlined that the president is dedicated to accomplishing it by the end of 2026 and that it is not just a political pledge.

“We’re doing everything to begin the reconstruction of the abandoned Krofrom Market and promise it will be ready by the end of December 2026,” Zuba stated.

This time, he said, the project would be entirely funded by the Ghanaian government rather than being outsourced, as the previous administration had done.

Zuba believes the government adopting the project wills fast-track the completion of the long-standing project, adding that outsourcing it to foreign donors keeps delaying the completion.
