In a bid to revitalize trading conditions and improve the welfare of traders at the Kumasi City Market (Kejetia Market), a pressure group is urging the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, to appoint a completely new board of directors, believing a fresh perspective is crucial for success.
The group, known as the Alliance for Change, is poised to formally petition Otumfuo, expressing their concerns based on observations and evaluations of the performance of previous management and boards.
According to the group, the direction and management of the past board are directly responsible for the current challenges facing the market. "As far as the board is equally culpable of the mess, our expectation is to get new and fresh minds to fix the rot, as has happened to the management echelon," stated Anastasia Bonsu, spokesperson for the Alliance for Change.
She indicated that the group will remain steadfast in pursuing this objective.
