The Assembly passed another bye-law to prohibit the use of passenger vehicles, including taxicabs, for transporting dead bodies to and from hospital mortuaries. Mr Seth Oduro, the Municipal Chief Executive, said the Assembly had provided over 200 street lights to improve visibility in the electoral areas to reduce crime at night. He said there was an ongoing programme to fix all faulty street lights, especially in the Asamankesse and Osanase townships, to improve visibility. “The fixing and replacement of all faulty street lights will soon be replicated in all the major towns in the Municipality,” he said.
