Lack of funds stalled amphitheaters’ construction – Okraku-Mantey on NPP manifesto promise

Deputy Tourism Minister, Mark Okraku Mantey, has admitted that the construction of five amphitheaters promised by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) government has stalled due to a lack of funds.

Mr Okraku-Mantey explained that the construction of these amphitheaters was predominantly funded by the World Bank.

The Deputy Minister said this during the Manifesto Debate on Creative Arts on Joy FM.

However, he revealed that the initial budget had been depleted, leading to delays in the project’s completion.
