Greater Accra Regional Minister, Henry Quartey
Greater Accra Regional Minister, Henry Quartey has said the ‘Make Accra Work Again’ campaign is not a targeted initiative to displace a particular group of people.
He insists the campaign is necessary to curb indiscipline in the capital and achieve President Akufo-Addo’s goal of making the country’s capital the cleanest city in Africa.
“This Make Accra Work Campaign is not a witch hunt but an exercise to make Accra an enabling environment for all to do business,” he stated.
On his accord, the campaign is being undertaken with a human face and a series of warnings had been issued to traders and slum dwellers around these illegal markets and settlements but they went unheeded.
The Greater Accra Regional Coordinating Council and the Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA) will begin an exercise to rid the Graphic Road in Accra of illegal occupants and encroachers.
