The National Democratic Congress (NDC) parliamentary candidate for the Bantama constituency in the Ashanti Region, Simon Addai Dapaah, and several party members have intervened to stop individuals from vandalizing and selling parts of faulty buses at the Bantama depot of the Metro Mass Transit in Kumasi.
Over 70 buses at the depot, which had been abandoned due to mechanical issues, were at risk of being dismantled for their parts.
The incident follows a series of attacks on state institutions in various parts of the country after the winner of the December 7th elections was declared.
In Kumasi, some individuals had been dismantling buses that were out of service, attempting to sell their parts.
