This one deiii I will support the current kma boss and ndc...Kumasi needs to rid itself of the filt to bring back the garden city we taut ourselves with
Not even school children are allowed to be whipped. Whoever tries to hit another person with a stick could be charged with assault!
Fool ? This is what Africans deserve. We don't behave as normal human beings.
You an idiot... The streets of kumasi can be sorted without physically assaulting anyone. And that's what this fool of a mayor must find to avoid abuse of power and collateral damages by jobless machomen .... we have been her ...

I think to let them pay for their disobedience is good than to whip them.
Good move but you can also give such people a tool and supervise to clean the dirty gutters or start a city farm somewhere and send them there to go and work for a whole day.Make the punishment productive please. LET th ...

The new mayor can't do that.They're human beings, not animals. They're working legally to make ends meet, as there are no social interventions to support them. The best action to take is to patrol the area regularly. But to b ...

I support him because this is what Africans understand and afraid of, he can also arrest them to clean the gutters as a form of punishment, we need to change our attitude
Where are the courts? The law does not grant anybody the right to beat up fellow Ghanaian. Please stop this budding dictator before he gets out of hand!!!.
Beat who …….gyemiee Saaa
@ Abena.
Just ignore the fool.under wat law will his party supporters use to whip our old women and men.
God forbid.like he and his fam will run from Kumasi.
Nkwaseasem ara kwa.is he the law?
Don’t be silly We are in a civilised country. Use decency to deal with issues. Don’t make Mahama unpopular
this mayor is a fool
Allow him for 3 months and you see different Kumasi, this is what rawlings did in nkrumah circle before the citizens obeyed the rules
Rawlings was trying people in kangaroo courts at midnight and shooting those found guilty at dawn. Dee, you should have been one of the people tried and shot at dawn.
Rawlings even whipped old women vaginas, what did it change!
Good show, if not rhetorics.
So na who caused the pavement trading?
We have the "Men" party cause am.Mr Mayor be tactical in handling the traders or else the Npp will turn the market women against you & the Ndc party.They had people in cabinet,printed s ...

In my opinion, it will be wiser to find a place and build stalls for them to generate some income. This will boost the economy of Oseikrom.
Who is this FOOL. You think there are no men in Ghana? Touch my relative and see. Kwasia man. You are you to determine somebody needs to be whipped. If they have broken a law, arraign them before court. Or fine them. WHIP? yo ...

Tell your relatives to respect the law and stop littering the city with thrash.
@ Danso

That will be great. I do not know why in this country every roadside has a supermarket, causing so much inconvenience to road users. A journey of 30 minutes can take you 3 hrs due to these traders. The country needs to adopt ...

Tell the mayors in Accra, Cape Coast, Kasoa and other NDC strong holds constituencies to do same. Why do NDC government always pilot bad things in Kumasi?
Foolish Mayor!!!
We need discipline
Come and witness whats happening on the streets of koforidua. Aaah. Laws must be made to be obeyed wilfully or by force.
The idea of removing vendors from the streets and sidewalks is a welcome one. But what is 'military-democratic style'? What are our laws concerning selling on the streets and sidewalks? Is it the same 'military-democratic sty ...

If he's able to do this at Alabar, Asewase, and Moshie Zongo, I'll visit Kumasi to back him. If he clears Alabar alone, he qualifies to be the next president. We are waiting to see.
Gyimii saa. You think this AFRC?PNDC. I dare you to try
This guy needs sacking immediately
Richard Agyemang Boadi don't be silly, just remove them! What is this nonsense about whipping anybody. We are not in the days of the AFRC and the fact your name is AGYEMANG does not mean you should bring back the days of the ...

They should leave to where? Please don't destroy small businesses. Try and finish the central market then you can relocate them there.
Thank you Mr Regional Minister!!. Yes i believe that africans in particular need to be ruled by uncompromising dictators.

Good Mr Regional Minister!! Teach them to behave as human beings. There's no respect for the law in Ghana. After all the people of Kumasi will never vote for the NDC.

Rules are rules and those who abused it must be arrested and not whipped. Whipping is an abuse.
Mr. Mayor, are we in a jungle? Buckle up and find better solutions to the problem. Even Rawlings who applied such brute force eventually regretted his actions later in his life. He killed people because of corruption yet in h ...

Is this man's head properly screwed on?Is he taking inspiration from d rambo style attacks by security men on NPP appointees?We are not in a millitary regime.Go back to sleep.
You are such a fool of a mayor in Kumasi.

Crude as it sounds, the mayor has a point. No amount of waste collection, no number of sanitation days, can solve our worsening waste and littering crises, until people realize it not worth the price or pain. Discipline is in ...
