General Overseer of Alabaster International Ministries, Prophet Kofi Oduro
The General Overseer of Alabaster International Ministries, Prophet Kofi Oduro, has strongly criticised traders who continue to conduct business on pavements despite the Accra Metropolitan Assembly’s ongoing decongestion exercise.
In a video shared on X on May 25, 2025, Prophet Oduro, while ministering to his congregation, called for strict adherence to the AMA’s directives and urged traders to vacate unauthorised spaces.
He emphasised that the justifications given by traders for defying the directive are baseless and unacceptable.
“Because their brains aren’t working, they’re driven off in the morning, and by evening, they’re back conducting business. Such people need to stop misbehaving.
“If this were happening in developed countries, would you still want to travel there? I’m speaking to all traders: leave the streets. Stop making lame excuses,” he stated.
Prophet Oduro also expressed concern over the rampant noise pollution in the country, particularly blaming commercial drivers.
“There’s a place in the United Kingdom where if you blow your horn, you could be arrested. But here in Ghana, drivers use horns to call passengers. Let’s stop this nonsense,” he added.
One would recall that the AMA recently launched a city-wide decongestion operation targeting areas such as the Kaneshie footbridges, Kwame Nkrumah Circle, and other high-traffic locations.
The initiative aims to reclaim public spaces, improve sanitation, and prevent the unlawful occupation of key infrastructure.
