Members of the Ga Traditional Council have opposed the construction of an ongoing hostel facility for head porters (Kayayei) at Agbogbloshie in the Greater Accra Region.
According to a statement signed by King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II, Ga Mantse, and the President of the Ga Traditional Council, their decision to kick against the project is a result of authorities’ refusal to contact or engage them prior to the commencement of the project.
Therefore, the traditional council wants the project to be halted immediately because to them under no circumstance should such a facility be raised at the centre of Accra [Agbogbloshie] to the prejudice of “Gamei”.
“The Ga Traditional Council under the leadership of its President, Ga Mantse and the people of The Ga State, remain vehemently opposed to this Project,” the statement affirmed.
It further called on any person or group that wishes to proceed with the hostel project for the “Kayayei” to seek a new site outside the city because they remain adamant on their decision.
