The Constitution Review Commission (CRC) is recommending that government should create an economic capital and leave Accra as the political capital of the Nation.
A member of the CRC, Gabriel Scott Pwamang explained that the country will be strategically positioned to benefit since Accra is congested.
He said: �currently, Accra has become very congested and very difficult to move around and government business is slow.�
According to him, other countries such as Tanzania and Nigeria have built a capital for administration �so the submission is, can we look at that policy�, he asked.
Mr. Pwamang further explained that �the Commission believes that it is a reasonable proposal for a reasonable foundation and that in terms of policy guidance, we are recommending it for the future.�
He said this matter cannot be passed by an act of Parliament but it is an administrative recommendation �which will be useful in managing Accra.�
