Provide Us with Security Force- Businessmen Tell KMA
Adum- Kumasi businessmen have blamed Kumasi Metropolitan Assembly KMA for insecurity at the business centre.
They have asked the Assembly to provide them with the night security force.
The traders say robbers have mostly looted goods and cash from their shops in the night due to insecurity. Shop owners pay a tax of a sum of 500GHS annually yet, their businesses are not protected.
However, they feel that KMA must use part of the tax they pay to employ night security guards to patrol Adum in order to avert the overburdened thievery.
A business tycoon, Mr. Sule Baah Bitee, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Oman Berlyn Enterprise told media that, “Mr. Osei Asibey Antwi, KMA Boss is not doing enough, his performance is below belt since he is unable to provide basic protection to our properties despite the huge sums of tax we pay to the Assembly”.
He argued that the Assembly’s structures are weak and nonfunctional hence the unavailability of the night security force.
