Vice President and Flagbearer for the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has indicated that the government is putting measures in place to build a new three-story, 120-store facility for the people in replacement of burnt Madina Market.
This morning, in Madina, Accra, I toured parts of the Madina Market gutted by fire last week. I also commiserated with traders affected by the fire outbreak and conveyed the government’s concern, and immediate steps to replace the burnt shops with a new three-story, 120-store facility, as well as some financial support, after a verification process by the Municipal Assembly.
I also urged the traders, and all traders in our various markets, to take fire insurance and other insurance schemes seriously, to protect their investments.
