Get the traders off the streets, now!!

Do we really have a government in Ghana? Where is it? Where is law and order? Where is the Accra Metropolitan Authority? What are they doing? What are the police doing? Where is law enforcement? Look at the streets of Accra, what do you see? The traders have taken over the streets, selling in the streets, and pedestrians don’t even have a way to walk. Motorists are facing traffic jams because of these traders.

This is unbecoming of a city. This is horrible! This is an eyesore, with trash and stench everywhere! The Akuffo government allowed this in order to win the election, but they lost regardless! And it is their duty to get the traders off the streets, right now and with immediate effect!

Keep the city clean! Let there be law and order. Get the traders off the streets and do it right now! The Salaga Market must be opened right now to allow traders to move there. They’ve been foolishly playing politics with the Salaga Market and this nonsense has got to stop. Salaga Market must be opened right now. It’s been over thirty years in construction, what’s keeping you, idiots?

The London Market in James Town must also be developed and opened to the many traders.

All the markets must be developed to allow more traders. I live in Dodowa, and the market is horrible, full of dust, affecting the food we eat and causing sickness! The roads are full of dust, bringing sickness to the people. It’s a very pathetic situation we’re in right now and the incoming government has a lot of work to do!

Get the traders off the streets now! Open the Salaga Market and develop the London and other markets. Enough is enough! Stop playing politics and do the right thing.
