Any visitor to the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation (GBC) would have noticed a massive transformation in the road infrastructure on its premises.
Right from the entrance, the road has been asphalted, and the incidence of potholes is now a thing of the past.
The appropriate road markings are visibly displayed, and the parking looks beautifully laid out.
Unlike in the past, the pathways leading to the various departments have been neatly paved, and the area across each pathway is adorned with a thick carpet of lush grass.
The various departments mostly harbour tall buildings, which are now enveloped in brightly coloured green and yellow paintings, making the entire compound a beautiful sight to behold.
The facelift was courtesy of the Minister of Roads and Highways, Mr. Amoako Attah.
The GBC internal road project commenced in 2021 as part of the Ministry’s initiative of constructing internal roads of all government institutions.
In December, 2022, the Contractor completed the final phase of the project.
The Director General of GBC, Professor Amin Alhassan, expressed his profound gratitude to the Minister, Mr. Amoako Atta
in his Christmas message.
“On this occasion, I want to make a special mention of the Honourable Minister for Roads and Highways, Hon. Amoako Attah for believing in GBC and helping our compound look great” he said.
GBC and Ghana Highways have since established a collaborative relationship, culminating in the organization of a festival of Nine Lesson and Carols at the Tarmac of the Ghana Highways Authority on Thursday, December 21, 2022.
At the joint programme, Professor Amin Alhassan reiterated his heartfelt appreciation for the completion of the facelift project.
“For us at GBC, we want to use this occasion to express our profound gratitude to the president of the Republic, the vice president and indeed the government for the support that has been extended to GBC during the year through the Ministry of Roads and Highways” he said.
