The Concerned Association of Taxi Drivers has hit the streets of Mankessim to protest against the rampant arrest of its members by the MTTD of the Mfantseman Municipality, especially the Mankessim Division.
The aggrieved drivers are worried about the issue and complained that drivers do not have a station/lorry park, hence, they use the “pick and go” method.
The Concerned Association of Taxi Drivers revealed that several consultations have been made but yielded no positive result, therefore ending today’s strike.
The drivers gave a week ultimatum, adding if the issue is not addressed, they would advise themselves.
The Assembly Member for the Anaafo-Estate Electoral Area, Hon. Cephas Arthur said he has personally consulted with the MCE of the Mfantseman Municipality, Hon. Ike Lord Ennu and the Mankessim Divisional MTTD Commander, ASP Mrs Beatrice Sintim Koree on the matter.
He disclosed that authorities would address the issues the drivers raised.
