Kevin Taylor took issue with the traders and questioned what grounds they had to make specific demands to the state.
Reacting to the comments by Kevin Taylor, Twene Jonas said the unwarranted attack was needless, especially as the Adum Market traders had the right to protest and voice their grievances over what had happened.
He explained that the rant by Kevin Taylor created the perception that he was paid by some people to criticise the traders.
He opined that certain utterances at this time would only make it difficult for the NDC party especially when they try to canvass for the support of the traders going forward.

Adum traders on rejecting rice donations
Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that one of the affected Adum Market traders, identified only as Omar, opened up on the decision and the rationale behind the traders rejecting the rice and oil donations.
Speaking in an interview, the young man, who looked displeased, lamented that rice was not what they needed at that specific moment where they were grappling with huge losses.
He wondered why the Minister and NADMO arrived at the decision to donate foodstuffs when other types of donations would have come in handy.
