Chiefs, people of Adamorobe picket at Roads Ministry over poor roads

The Chiefs and people of Adamorobe, in the Akwapem South Municipality of the Eastern Region, have staged a protest at the Ministry of Roads and Highways, demanding urgent repairs to the 10km road that runs through their community to Aburi.

Frustrated by unsuccessful attempts to get local authorities to address the poor road conditions, the Adamorobe residents took their concerns to Accra, where they presented a petition to the Roads Ministry, hoping for swift action.

Dr. Raymond Takyi, an opinion leader in Adamorebe tells Citi News that the nature of the road will have a major influence on the voting pattern in the December elections

“We have taken all necessary steps, even if it’s politically motivated, why do we vote? Why do we get leaders? Leaders are supposed to solve problems, if you are in a position and you are not solving problems, what do we do? That is the challenge we have in Ghana, we put incompetent people in positions. But honestly, this is not politically motivated.”
