This comes on the back of a similar exercise which saw the demolition of illegal structures along the Graphic Road in Accra.

Mr Quartey, who is also the Ayawaso Central Member of Parliament, has already noted that although he is aware that measures being taken by his outfit to decongest the city will be greeted with lots of criticisms and backlash, tackling the issue of sanitation in Ghana remains a priority to him.
