Popular Ghanaian skit comedian SDK has taken to social media to voice his frustration over the state of the Tema motorway.

According to him, there has been very little improvement on the motorway despite the allocation of funds for its expansion.

In a series of tweets on his Twitter handle, SDK pointed out that although the sides of the motorway were cleared for the expansion project, the area has since become overgrown with bushes again, indicating a halt in the work.

“For your information, they took IMF money to expand the motorway yet nothing has been done. They speedily came to clear the side of the motorway for the expansion and guess what, the place is bushy again to square one…wicked men and women,” he posted.

The comedian also highlighted the persistent issues of potholes and the absence of street lighting on the motorway, which continue to pose safety hazards for motorists.

“There are still big potholes on the motorway with no street light,” he shared.

SDK's tweets join those of many Ghanaians who are sceptical about the ongoing reconstruction and expansion of the motorway into a 10-lane highway.

The expansion project, which began in January 2024, aims to transform the 19.5-kilometre stretch from the Tetteh Quarshie roundabout to the Tema roundabout into a 10-lane highway.

However, the slow pace of work and the current state of the motorway have left many questioning the effectiveness of the project management and the use of allocated funds.
