The construction site for the country’s vice presidents engulfed in weeds A new mansion under construction to house Ghana’s Vice Presidents has for the past four years, been left uncompleted. The contract for the building which is located on the SwitchBack Road in Accra was awarded and started under the erstwhile John Mahama-led administration. The decision to construct a new residence for Ghana’s Vice Presidents came after former President Mahama decided to reside in the previous official Vice President’s residence after he was elected president. Current Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, upon assumption of office in January 2017, revealed that the previous NDC administration had planned to spend $13.9 million to construct the official residence.
