Residents of Sekondi-Takoradi were met with surprising news on Monday, December 16, as the statue of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, unveiled by the President himself, was found vandalized.
The statue, located near the Effia Nkwanta Regional Hospital, has been a subject of public debate since its unveiling.
Critics have questioned its relevance, particularly in light of unfulfilled government promises and stalled projects within the region.
Richard Kirk Mensah, the Western Regional Communications Officer for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has been an outspoken critic of the statue, suggesting it would be better placed in the President's hometown of Kyebi.
