The Association of Building and Civil Engineering Contractors, Volta region branch is giving the outgoing government, Friday January 6, 2017 to pay monies owed them in the last six months.
Addressing a press conference in Ho, Wednesday, the leadership of the association said, their members have outstanding certificates with government for the last six months and over for various projects executed in the region, of which the government has so much credit for.
According to the secretary of the association, Emmanuel Afetorgbor their members pre-financed many of the government projects executed in the health, education and other sectors with loans from the financial institutions, who are currently on their necks to repay the facility.
The group has therefore resolved to lock up all such projects, should the government fail to pay the outstanding monies by the close of Friday.
