Some irate youth in the Kwesimintsim Constituency in the Effia Kwesimintsim Municipal Assembly (EKMA), Western Region have blocked the Assakae-Whindo road to express their displeasure at the poor state of the road.
This morning before 6 am, the youth prevented the Electoral Commission officials to the Whindo polling station with the burning of tires and wood on the road.
According to those who spoke to www.233times.net, the EKMA Boss, Kojo Acquah told them some six months ago that the Assembly has receieved funds to complete the construction of the road but they have not seen any progress since then.
“This is the best time to express our displeasure since they don’t mind us anytime we speak about this” a youth told www.233times.net.
Soldiers have arrested the leader of the irate youth and have handed him over to the Police.
In the Kwesimintsim Constituency, Dr. Prince Armah of NPP is contesting Lawyer Philip Fiifi Buckman of the NDC.
