The Municipal Chief Executive (MCE)for Awutu Senya East Municipal Assembly in the Central Region, Seth Sabah Serwornoo Banini, has firmly dismissed widespread perceptions that Kasoa has become a haven for criminals and fugitives.
Speaking on the Ghana Yensom Morning Show on Accra 100.5 FM with Odehyeeba Kofi Essuman, the MCE described such claims as exaggerated and misleading, emphasising that the municipality remains open and secure for investors and businesses. "Kasoa is not the crime-infested town some people portray it to be.
It is a few miscreants who engage in unlawful activities and attempt to tarnish the image of the area," Banini stated. "The overwhelming majority of residents are law-abiding citizens working hard to build their lives." He assured the public and prospective investors that the Assembly is committed to maintaining law and order, adding that the safety of lives and property in Kasoa is a top priority.
Banini also denied allegations that the Assembly had contracted land guards to forcibly remove traders from pavements.
