Road contractors who insult President Nana Akufo-Addo are likely to have their contracts terminated - the Minister of Roads and Highways, Kwesi Amoako Atta has hinted.

He warned the contractors to desist from insulting the President as a way to express their frustration in an interview with NEAT FM’s morning show ‘Ghana Montie’.

Kwesi Amoako Atta said he will personally ensure contracts of individuals who pass negative comments about President Akufo-Ado are canceled and re-awarded.

“I don’t care if he insults just me, but if he involves the President in issues involving my sector, I will not allow it,” he added.

Majority of contractors across the country have expressed disappointment with the NPP government over the delayed release of funds to pay them.

Some have tagged the President as a “liar” for failing to fulfill his campaign promise to pay them.
