A recently-constructed but yet-to-be commissioned police station at Anwomaso-Junction in the Oforikrom Municipality is now serving as a hideout for criminals and a home for lunatics.
Electrical gadgets and louver blades installed in the new building have been damaged.
The building is also smeared with fecal matter with no end in sight when it will be operational.
The police station situated at Anwomaso -Junction was started in 2017 and completed in 2019.
But the project commissioning has stalled due to litigation over the land where the building is situated.
Lunatics and some unscrupulous individuals are currently occupying and defacing the edifice.
Municipal Chief Executive, Abraham Kwame Antwi, says they are currently working with the chiefs to resolve the land litigations to pave way for the commissioning.
Delivering his sessional address to the local assembly, Mr. Antwi called on the government to help complete the Municipal Assembly block.
According to him, most of the assemblies within Greater Kumasi now have their Assembly blocks, but the Oforikrom Assembly block remains under construction.
There have been countless abandoned government projects which would have been in use and created more employed if focused on. The reason for abandoning such projects is not yet known. But this particular abandoned police station which is now serving as a hideous for criminals is fast gaining attention.
Netizens of the area pleaded with the right authorities to commission it and make it operational so these wicked criminals will get away. The building is a newly built one that is over 85% work complete, commissioning it shouldn't be too much of a problem, some netizens added.
As netizens have poured out their emotions, we expecting a positive feedback from the right authorities either to commission it and make it operational or close it down to drive all these criminals who are threat to the society away.
