Residents of Adamorobe, located in the Akwapem South Municipality of the Eastern Region, have organized a protest at the Ministry of Roads and Highways, urgently calling for repairs to a crucial 10-kilometer road that connects their community to Aburi.
Frustrated by their unsuccessful attempts to get local authorities to address the deteriorating road conditions, the Adamorobe community decided to take their grievances to Accra. During the protest, they presented a petition to the Roads Ministry, expressing their hope for prompt action.
Dr. Raymond Takyi, a prominent opinion leader in Adamorobe, spoke to Citi News about the significant impact of the road’s condition on the upcoming 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.”
