The Ministry of Roads and Highways has dismissed a viral video showing a road allegedly being removed by hand, insisting that the footage was recorded in Liberia and has no connection to road projects in Ghana.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, October 27, the Ministry said its checks had established that the road featured in the video was located in Liberia, describing attempts to link it to projects under its supervision in Ghana as misleading.

β€œThe Ministry categorically rejects this misrepresentation,” the statement said.

The video has circulated on social media, creating the impression that the road was constructed in Ghana and raising concerns about the quality of road infrastructure projects.

The Ministry said it would not allow misleading content to distort public understanding of its work or undermine confidence in ongoing road projects.

It reaffirmed its commitment to ensuring that roads constructed across the country meet the required standards, citing the Roads and Highways Minister’s ongoing inspection tours of projects nationwide.

The Ministry has urged media organisations and social media users to verify information before publishing or sharing it, warning that misrepresented footage could mislead the public and undermine informed discussions.

It has called on Ghanaians to disregard the claims linking the video to local road projects and rely on verified information from credible sources.
