The Kumasi NPP Parliamentary Bloc has blamed the numerous challenges facing the city of Kumasi on poor management and ineffective governance structures.

According to them, there is a need for a significant overhaul in the city's management to create a conducive environment for both businesses and residents to thrive, free from the constraints of partisan interests.

Francis Asenso-Boakye, Chairman of the Bloc, attributed the recent devastating fire outbreak in Adum to poor city management.

He made this statement while speaking at a forum organized by the caucus as part of its outreach program to educate the public on current parliamentary matters.
