“I will call more for their regulation than completely abandoning or banning their operation,” he said in an interview on Asaase Radio. Greater Accra Minister, Henry Quartey, has vowed to make the capital city, Accra, the cleanest city in Africa. The law, according to the minister, is to prevent3 motorbike riders, abandoned vehicles on streets, and also ban tricycles (Aboboyaa) from using the Highways and Principal streets in the Greater Accra Region. But Eric Oduro Osai disagreed with the ban stating that the use of tricycles, popularly referred to as ‘aboboyaa’ comes in handy in areas where other vehicles find difficult to use. He believes aboboyaa is beneficial for the transporting of passengers and carting goods reiterating that a total ban is not the best.
