Some market women at the Central Business District, Makola have called on the Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA) to postpone its intended clean up exercise from Thursday to the weekend.<\/p>\n

The Accra Metropolitan Assembly(AMA) ordered the closure of all shops within the metropolis for a massive clean-up exercise on Thursday.<\/p>\n

The move, according to the Assembly, will help deal\u00a0with the insanitary conditions in the capital.<\/p>\n

But speaking to Citi News<\/strong>, some market women proposed that the AMA postpones its clean up exercise to the weekend to forestall any inconvenience.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt will be better to have the clean up on the weekend. It will inconvenience me if it is carried out on Thursday because I am a single parent and if I do not come to the market, I’ll lose money,\u201d a market woman stated.<\/p>\n

Another market woman also opposed the AMA’s decision to carry out the exercise on Thursday saying, \u201cwhen debtors come to pay and you are not there, it will take a longer time for them to settle the debt.\u201d<\/p>\n
