Scores of youth at Wenchi in the Bono Region on Monday have demonstrated against the deplorable state of their roads.
Clad in red armbands and attire, the residents have burned car tyres, chanted war songs and blocked the main road leading to Wa.
The protesters displayed placards with agitated inscriptions such as “They need our votes, not our wellbeing,” “We are so disappointed,” “Enough is enough,” “They don’t care about us” and many others.
The Ghana Police and Fire Service personnel were at the scene to calm tensions and restore order.
