Francis Asenso-Boakye, Minister of Works and Housing has urged engineers across the country to prioritize the life of humans over their economic gains in the discharge of their mandates.
He has, thus, charged the Engineering Council to effectively regulate the sector to weed out unqualified and unregistered practitioners to ensure the highest professional standards and improve quality of work delivery.
Speaking at a news conference in Accra on Wednesday organised by the Ministry and the Engineering Council, the sector Minister bemoaned the poor execution of some projects in the past, a situation he said had resulted in the loss of many lives and caused damages to properties.
