Mr Sarpong warned against their misuse, saying, under no circumstance should the buses be used for private business at the expense of the development of the sub-metropolitan areas. Mr Sarpong said it was by so doing that they would be deepening and strengthening the country's decentralization. KMA, he said, would not relent in its efforts at addressing the development challenges of the metropolis and called on the people to support the assembly by paying their taxes.
