Fix the North Industrial Area street lights

Dear Editor,

I want to use this medium to draw the attention of the authorities to the thick darkness that engulfs some areas of the North Industrial Area (NIA) malfunctioning street lights.

This put the lives of commuters that use that area in the evenings in danger robbers and drug addicts usually parading the area.

In recent times, few ladies have had their bags snatch by these robbers either operating on foot or using motorbikes.

This is the second time I am submitting this piece, hoping that the authorities would see this and rush to the aid of such victims by fixing or replace the lights.

As election approaches, it is important to keep every area peaceful and safe for the citizens and one of the way by which crime can be reduced or checked is when the lights are on.

Crime can happen under either light or darkness but at least when there is light, a potential victim can read through and find a way to escape or protect him/herself.

I hope this would touch either ECG or Ghana Highway Authority (GHA) to fix these lights to make the capital beautiful too.

Mercy Shoku,
