Arab Contractors, a foreign construction firm, have destroyed several pipelines laid betweent he Pamadze Feedmill Limited and the Winneba junction when they were constructing the Winneba junction - Agona Swedru trunk road few years ago.

Residents within that area have consequently been denied water supply for almost a year now and all attempts to get the damage pipelines replaced with new ones by the Construction firms have failed and the Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL) has also done nothing about the situation all this period.

The chiefs, assembly members and opinion leaders in the areas involved have shown mush concern about the issue and have officially reported the matter to the Agona Swedru District Branch of GWCL on several occasions but whenever they go, the usual response has always been "we shall restore it soon."

The residents have been accusing the GWCL for collecting huge sums of money from the Arab Contractors or the replacement of the damaged pipelines but have failed to lay new ones for the supply of water to the areas affected.

When The independent contacted the District Manager of GWCL, Mr Kweku Aggrey, he confirmed the destruction of the pipelines by the Arab Contractors but denied categorically that his outfit has never collected any money from them for the replacement of the broken pipelines.
