Residents of the Atiwa West constituency in the Eastern region have hit the streets to protest against the Member of Parliament (MP) for the area, Kwesi Amoako Atta who is also the Minister for Roads and Highways over the absence of developmental projects.
According to the protesters, the MP, among other things, has failed to fix major roads in his own constituency even as the minister responsible for Ghana’s roads sector.
