So why do we always have to wait until the buildings go up before we take action.

Remove Aboboyaas and pragya tricycle taxis from our roads. Meanwhile west African beggars and other criminal elements have invaded and inundated neighborhoods and the streets of Accra and other cities. In their wake, have been left spreading and spanning and sprawling and spawning zongos and ghettos. Okada riders have taken over every junction and intersection. Street lights are either malfunctioning or non existent. Traffic lights and not working. There are no reflectors, no lines, no crosswalk markings etc on our roads posing a great danger to road users especially at night. Filth has engulfed the entire city. Container shops and table top sellers have taken over pavements and pedestrian crosswalks. Dangerous levels of noise from Muslim muezzins call to prayer and churches continuously disturb our sleep. What is the interior minister, local government minister, various regional ministers, MMDCEs and other relevant authorities doing about these dangers? If this canker is not nipped in the bud, the resultant social menace in the near future will be catastrophic.

If that person or persons are not arrested, they will do the same thing in the near future then we are back to square one. We cannot do the same thing and expect different results. Yes, commonsense does not support that.

Has anyone applied for a building Permit at the Tema Metropolitan Assembly (TMA)? After paying hard cash to obtain the building permit, applicants are subjected to very disrespectfull and corrupt processes at the Works department. This process is unecessarily stretched for many years by the staff at the Works department due to their incompetence and corrupt processes. The current head at the Works department is a guy who calls himself "Engineer Obour" is the worst culprit. This arrogant and over pampered "Obour" guy behaves as if he owns his position forever and will never die in this life. Posterity will judge all of this corrupt people at the Works department of the TMA

The problem start from the chiefs who sell lands anyhow. As a country we should start putting some chiefs behind bars to be a lesson to others not to sell water area lands to people.

I pray that every government should be given a mandatory 7 years so that we stop going into elections for some of the useless electorate to use it as a yardstick to keep or not to keep governments in check/power.

Go toSpintex road, Regimmanuel Estate, behind Beirut cafe.. for 2 to 3 years.. stop building sign by court order.. a very well known person disregarded and has completed 4 Town houses. What nonsense is this. Lawlessness. But nothing will happen. People are getting away with building anywhere. They are getting away with it. It seems the big people are getting away with lawlessness
