A Fibre Optic laying firm, Jamai activities in Airport Residential Area, Kwabenya and other areas are posing threats to residents and motorists.

The construction firm, believed to be an Indian company, after carrying out their duty leave dug trenches for the fibre optic uncovered, exposing it to vulnerable children in the area.

Not only do their activities expose playing children to danger, but to motorists and pedestrians due to the heap sands they leave unattended to after work.

Additionally, the company’s failure to conduct a pre cast and mix concretes on the streets instead of in concrete mixers also leave caked concretes on the asphalt; destroying it in the process.

A worried resident in Kwabenya- Doe said in an interview that “I just don’t understand some of these contractors; they mix the concrete on the asphalt government has spend so much to construct.

He added “Even as a lay man I know the best way to mix concrete is done in a mixer and not on the streets. The other day a car nearly crashed because of a heaped sand by the road side.

“They dig in front of houses and they don’t cover it after laying whatever they put in the trenches, it’s bad. I think Urban Roads and other authorities should check this, it’s terrible.”

Doe revealed that his checks suggests that the said company was hired by Google Ghana but questioned their credibility considering the fact that they work without wearing safety apparel as well as put caution signs to alert road users.

Another resident at the Airport Residential Area who goes by the name George said “I hear the construction firm is an Indian company but you always see local workers and their finishing is not the best; they do it in a such a way that residents find it difficult to enter their gates. You know this is an area where many of our big men live.”

A further probe into the matter indicated that the India company after landing the contract from Google Ghana allegedly delegated the work to a local contractor whose activity has raised eyebrow in the affected areas.
