Victims of the recent devastating fire at Adum in Kumasi have rejected a donation of 1,500 bags of rice, 800 boxes of cooking oil, and soap provided by the Interior Minister and Member of Parliament for Asawase, Muntaka Mubarak.
The donation, intended to support those affected by the fire, which destroyed several properties and left many businesses in ruins, has sparked controversy following the victims' decision to refuse the items.
The affected traders expressed their dissatisfaction with the aid, stating that the donated goods do not align with their immediate needs, as they require financial assistance and business support to begin their recovery.
