- Construction on the second phase of the Kejetia-Central Market redevelopment project has resumed
- Traders remain skeptical about the market completion timeline
- Traders are urging the government to provide a clear timeframe for the project's completion
Traders in the Ashanti region are celebrating the revival of phase two of the Kejetia-Central Market redevelopment project, which had been on hold for more than a year.
The project, initially launched in 2022, was stalled in early 2023 due to financial constraints.
Local traders, who had previously urged the government to restart construction, have expressed relief and enthusiasm at the news of work resuming.
They have called for prompt completion of the project to prevent any potential misuse of the redevelopment efforts for political gain in the upcoming general elections.
Despite the renewed activity, there are concerns about the timing and lack of a clear timeline for the project’s completion.
Traders and residents are pressing the government to expedite the process to ensure the market is finished without further delay.
