President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has, in a tweet, said infrastructure development is a priority for his government.
This, he said, is seen in 3,016 housing units under the Kpone Affordable Housing Programme, 19km of drains completed with 1,000km of drains excavated, rechanneled and maintained across the country.
All these projects show that the taxes being contributed by Ghanaians are working, he said.

Meanwhile, the E-levy policy is starting today Sunday May 1.

The authority assured the general public that adequate measures have been put in place to make the implementation smooth.
