The Atwima Techiman and Denkyemuoso Traditional Council has staged a massive demonstration to draw government's attention to the deplorable state of their roads in the Kwadaso municipality of the Ashanti Region.
Clad in red, the demonstrators, lead by Nana Tieku Owusu Ansah II, Atwima Akyeamehene, expressed frustration and called for immediate action on their road.
They are unhappy that the road construction has been abandoned, posing safety and health risks to the community.

"Asabea [contractors] came here to unroof all the houses along the road, including our palace, to pave the way for the construction of the road, but left the site without considering our concern; they don't even respond to our calls again," said the chief.
Residents highlighted the economic and health impacts of the poor road conditions, including increased transportation costs and respiratory problems due to the dusty nature of their road.

A 70-year-old woman, Aunty Adwoa Manu, shared her personal struggle with chronic diseases exacerbated by the dusty road.
The community is seeking relief and urgent action from the government.
