📝Averof: Government - champion of failure in public works
Averof Neofytou flags negative developments in the Paphos–Polis road project. He says he warned in November 2024 that the project was halted without a prior serious assessment of consequences.
He points to legal and technical traps, the risk of a "design and build" choice and overly optimistic cost and time estimates.
An official document, he states, confirms deadlock: legal disputes, delays, rising costs and uncertainty on restarting.
The promised three‑year timetable had no basis.
Cyprus loses time and credibility, he urges sober management, planning and responsibility over slogans.

🚨Explosion at scrap-metal plant: Injured operated — probe into ammunition
Three men underwent surgery after yesterday morning's explosion at a scrap‑metal processing plant in Aradippou.
