Reflecting on his tenure as Deputy Minister of Transport, Titus-Glover recounted handing over the Jamestown Fishing Harbour site to a Chinese contractor and praised the progress made so far.
“What we saw at the Jamestown port was impressive. It’s a testament to the development efforts of President Akufo-Addo and Vice President Bawumia. The fishing harbour will relieve our fishermen, women, and youth engaged in trade,” he said.

Highlighting ongoing infrastructure projects, Titus-Glover mentioned the Obetsebi-Lamptey Interchange, which had faced financial delays but is back on track, hoping to be completed by end of year.
He also noted significant work on the Tema Beach Road to Osu and the Adenta to Dodowa Road, with a presidential visit scheduled for next week.
“The development of roads is crucial for the region and the country. We are also focusing on education, with infrastructure improvements and the benefits of the free SHS policy evident in every household. It is a game-changer that enhances the human capital of our children,” Titus-Glover added.
