Accra Cleanup Operation Leads to Tensions with Vendors

Accra Decongestion Sparks Tensions: Day 2 of the Accra Metropolitan Assembly's cleanup operation saw clashes between authorities and street vendors. One vendor, visibly upset, exclaimed, "This is my livelihood! Where am I supposed to go?" The operation, aiming to improve traffic flow and urban aesthetics, has faced resistance from some residents who rely on the removed structures for their businesses. While the Assembly maintains the necessity of the decongestion, the incident highlights the social and economic impact on affected individuals. Further dialogue is needed to address the concerns raised and ensure a more equitable approach.
