Dadieso residents block Accra-Kumasi highway over abandoned gas tanker

Residents of Dadieso, a township near Kwahu, have blocked the Accra-Kumasi highway, in frustration over a gas tanker abandoned along the highway for approximately three days.

Despite the visible danger posed by the gas tanker, authorities have made no efforts to have it removed.

Fearing a potential explosion, the town folks blocked the highway using wooden materials, disrupting traffic flow between Accra and Kumasi.

The blockage by the residents was done to prompt the attention of relevant authorities, to have the gas tank removed.

According to an eyewitness, “Residents of Dadieso have blocked the road

No car going from Kumasi, no car coming from Kumasi at Dadieso, Kwahu side

So, they have blocked the road.”
