Hawkers demand promised trading spot

In another story, YEN.com.gh reported that traders at the Flowerpot interchange demanded that the government provide them with a permanent trading spot.

Their request came after the Greater Accra Regional Minister and local authority members stormed the site to destroy stalls.

They said they only want the government to fulfil its promise of providing them a trading spot, made before the construction of the flyover.
