Halt The Unnecessary Noise making Of The So Called Evangelists From Market Areas – Kejetia Traders To EPA.
A cross section of traders who operates within the Kumasi business enclave have. registered their disappointment about the manner in which some people have been turning Kajetia market into a preaching zone.
These so-called preachers, the traders observed resort to use the gospel to pollute the market with laud noise, which according to them are contrary to the environmental rules of the country.
Speaking to the correspondent,Ante Afua Agyeman noted that for the fact that the traders never oppose to the word of God, market places are not the suitable areas to share the word of God, and even if it is so the noisemaking must be limited to the background.
Agyeman said it is high time for one to move each step to meet these so-called preachers with their offering bowls seriously preachings along the pavement areas in the market.
Contributing Nana Agyepong Boateng noted that apart from their preachings, these so-called preachers ended up by soliciting funds as a means of meeting their transport fares, assisting orphans or maintenance of their instruments.
Nana Boateng hinted that the begging strategies used by these so-called preachers to extort monies from the public show clearly that the preachers have no call from God, but instead, operate out of hunger.
Madam Serwaa blamed the city authorities of the Kumasi Metropolitan Assembly (KMA) for allowing the charlatans to operate as true men of God and asked if there are no laws to ban such hungry preachers from the market centres in Kumasi.
Serwaa further blamed the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for allowing the noise pollution to remain in the cities, citing that if the Agency is capable to discharge their mandate as required sanity would prevail in the cities.
Serwaa therefore called on the relevant authorities especially the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to wake up and discourage those preachers who use the pavement areas of the markets to make unlawful noise and go scot free.
