IF they were renovated, it would have been difficult to burn. What is this bushy-hair fool doing as a mayor?

It's the handwork of the ethnocentric terrorist Nii Lantey Vanderpuiye.

That villainous doghearted miscreant of a MP is determined to drive away all non-Ga residents in his constituency by ruining their livelihoods.

THESE FORES ARE THE WORKS OF THE AMA. THEY ARE SIMPLY PAVING WAY FOR A BETTER DESIGN OF THE CITY. I THINK THIS IS A BAD WAY TO GO ABOUT IT THO. GIVE THE MARKET WOMEN A WARNING, OR SMTHING...U KNOW?

the Fantis were mislead into believing ndc meant well and would continue the path of honesty and integrity set by mills . slowly eyes have been opened to see the reality of this hegemonic ayigbe selfish incompetent corrupt govt. from now on it will be each his own and ndc will never carry the day again in any of the Akan territories , only ppp cpp or npp will pass. the demographics of the country have changed and now the Fantis speaking people of western and central regions have the numbers to form their own state if pushed into war by these wish to dominate and buga buga oppress ewe led govt. it is not enough that they killed mills now they push further to put the people into poverty and misery hoping to break the spirit of the people as they have been trying to do since before kotoka. first it was the brain drain that took most of the intellectuals away to serve some pointless civil service that ignored their own people instead of decentralization, then the schools were opened to all except those that built and nurtured them in the first place. then came the period of deny any gainful employment so they were forced to emigrate to other lands. then all projects and industry that made logical sense including sustainability were placed elsewhere or not even processed. so today even the tradition industry the ordinary man could do to scratch a living are purposely being neglected or destroyed such as the fishing industry and the farming. we see all and say no more , long live the republic of Akan

This damned Mayor is always shifting blame only so that he can keep his cushy job at the now largely irrelevant AMA. The buck stops with him. Period!

Even if it was others who were responsible for this fire it is still his responsibility to ensure that fires cannot be easily ignited in public and market-places. It is also still his responsibility to apprehend anybody he suspects of starting these fires.

Anybody with half a brain can observe that the prevailing conditions at these markets openly defy one epidemic disease or another or a conflagration (fire). I believe that it is only the divine will of God that has prevented any of this from happening every week around the country. Then when the fire happens, this Mayor of Accra blames others?? I really dont get it.

How people like our Mayor can sleep every night and sit idly by whilst earning a huge fanciful salary along with equally glamorous perks and allow the primitive and dangerous conditions in the markets to persist, is beyond the belief of any civilized or properly educated human being.

DONT BLAME THE MAYOR. HE IS NOT A DETECTIVE. THE SECURITY PEOPLE SHOULD DO THEIR JOB. NO AMOUNT OF ARCHITECTURE CAN STOP AN ALL DIE BE DIE BURNING TACTICS. THESE PEOPLE HAVE VOWED TO MAKE THE COUNTRY UNGOVERNABLE. NANA QUICKLY GOES TO EXPRESS CONDOLENCES TO TAKE THE ATTENTION AWAY FROM THE NPP. JUST LET THE SECURITY PEOPLE OPEN THEIR EYES AND THEY WILL CATCH THE OFFENDERS. THESE FIRES ARE NOT ACCIDENTAL. THERE ARE PEOPLE BEHIND IT AND I SUSPECT THE ALL DIE BE FIRE RELATED DIE. THAT'S IT. PERIOD.

You reek of the typical paranoia that haunts and bedevils the ineptitude of NDC operatives and sympathizers alike.

Look for the source of the problem instead of looking for ghosts.

NPP wants to make the country ungovernable. They will do anything they think will make JM unpopular. Sadly, on this occasion the NPP's all-die-be-die operation has hit its own support base. 99.3% of the traders at Kantamanto are NPP supporters.

You see, if you plan evil God will turn it on you. The affected Kantamanto traders should blame Nana Addo for their plight.

As Pastor Mensah Otabil rightly advised: THOSE WHO SAY 'ALL-DIE-BE-DIE' ARE BAD COMPANY!!! I wonder why any normal persons would follow a notorious and internationally-acknowledged marijuana smoker.

The mayor had lived in America so long that he must know why the fire started. Go to Makola and you can see the dangers people are trading under. No health and safety standards put in place, and wondered if there is a hazard one day, sodom and gomorrah, not Accra Sodom though, will be catastrophic.

Mr. Vanderpuije has, therefore, issued a stern warning to dwellers and traders in the two areas which were gutted by the separate fires not to begin rebuilding their structure.
Deliberate act and the stern warning not to begin rebuilding goes to smell the suspicion of some of the market women that the place is to be taken from them for an intented project.So who is behind it?
