The Peasant Farmers Association of Ghana has launched a campaign to end the standoff between the police, drivers, and traders who transport food from rural areas to urban centres to be sold to consumers.
The campaign primarily entails the distribution of a flyer designed to educate drivers, traders, and police officers about their respective rights and responsibilities in the transportation of farm produce to urban centres.
Mr. Charles Nnyaaba, president of the Peasant Farmers Association of Ghana, said at the launch that the flyer will go a long way toward resolving the current impasse between drivers, traders, and police on their way back from the rural areas where they go to deliver food to people in urban centres.
According to him, the food they bring from the villages perishes as a result of the delays that these drivers and traders face.
