Government To Launch Performance Tracker For Projects
The government, in March 2024, will launch a Performance Tracker that provides details of all government projects, their progress and their location since the NPP came into power.
Announcing this during the State of the Nation Address, President Akufo-Addo said that the Performance Tracker will help bring accountability to the people.
He explained that the general public can personally check with their phones, the status of the projects and even make a physical inspection if they wish to do so. He added that this would also help put a stop to the circulation of fake images as government projects.
“This government, after all, is the Digitalisation Government, and the man who has led the entire digitalisation process these past seven years, my indefatigable Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, Dr Digitalisation, the NPP’s excellent presidential candidate for the 2024 election, is coming up with what will allow everyone and anyone to check on every project being undertaken by the government without having to listen to the President’s message on the State of the Nation.”
“Mr Speaker, if you want to check on roads, classroom blocks or CHPs compounds or Agenda 111 hospitals, or bridges, or science laboratories, or water projects, or sanitation projects, or landing sites and harbours, and other infrastructural projects, or whatever this government used your tax money to execute, the key to your query is right there on your phone. Mr Speaker, the Performance Tracker will be formally launched in March,” President Akufo-Addo said.
The President noted that he would recommend the general public make use of the Performance Tracker, noting that his government has done more in providing infrastructure than any other government.
“In education in terms of student enrolment, teacher training and employment, provision of infrastructure, (NPP has done more) than any government; we have similarly done more in health, agriculture, security, roads, railways, tourism and digitalisation.”
