AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Road Safety & Transport Finance: The World Bank says traffic injuries cost Ghana about 2.1% of GDP yearly, with crash hotspots concentrated on 2.65% of urban roads and 4.37% of rural roads—pushing road safety into a macroeconomic priority. Transport Upgrades for Trade & Jobs: Ghana is set to use a $500m World Bank package to rehabilitate about 1,050km of feeder roads, but the Bank warns the wider transport fix must include maintenance and safer systems. Sierra Leone Digital Resilience: Sierra Leone’s MoCTI has unveiled draft Critical Information Infrastructure protection plans for Energy, Health, Education, and Defence/Security, aiming to harden critical services against cyberattacks and failures. Road Corridor Pressure in Sierra Leone: SEND Sierra Leone and NMJD demand urgent action on the Makeni–Kamakwie road corridor, citing stalled works, the collapsed Mathehun Bridge, disrupted ferries, and rising costs for communities. Port Capacity Debate: Sierra Leone lawmakers urge support for the Kent Harbour and Port Project to ease quay congestion and boost trade and revenue. Water Quality Oversight: Sierra Leone’s Water Ministry has inspected 41 private water facilities in Freetown and the peninsula, pushing corrective action where standards fall short. Energy Access Investment: A UK green tech firm plans to expand MOPOGrid across Africa, including Sierra Leone, building on solar battery rentals to support a future “energy grid.”
