Residents from the Echem, Akokoamong, and Achiase communities in the Ejisu Municipality are expressing their frustration over the poor condition of their roads.
These communities are grappling with significant dust pollution due to abandoned drainage construction, which has worsened, particularly during the rainy season.
Food vendors along these roads are feeling the impact most, as the dust deters customers from buying their products.
Residents are deeply concerned about the health risks associated with the dusty conditions, voicing their discontent over the unfulfilled promises from the government regarding road construction. Despite multiple appeals to local authorities, little has changed.
Kwabena Tawiah, a leader among the concerned youth, highlighted that the road to the Achiase government hospital remains incomplete, with an unfinished bridge forcing residents to take a longer route to access medical services.
The people of Echem, Akokoamong, and Achiase are holding onto hope, eager for their pleas to be recognized and for much-needed repairs to their roads.
