Traders engaged in bulk breaking activities in and around the central business district (CBD) of Accra have been given up to July 1 to relocate to the Adjen Kotoku Market in the Ga West Municipal Assembly (GWMA).
After the deadline, the Greater Accra Regional Coordinating Council (GARCC), together with a security task force, will move into full gear on a massive decongestion exercise to remove all structures within their trade areas.
The Greater Accra Regional Minister, Mr Henry Quartey, who gave the directive, said the move was in concert with the “Let’s Make Accra Work” initiative by the GARCC.
