MTN Allegedly Building Mast In A Residential Area (Tse Addo) Despite Health And Safety Concerns Raised By Residents
Residents of Tse Addo, near the Police Station are worried and highly concerned about a mast being erected by a telecom company in the locality.
Though the name of the telco is not confirmed yet, residents say per their own investigations and after talking to some of the workers on the site, it was clear and evident MTN is behind the mast.
Some residents indicate they‘be filed official complaints with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the local assembly, but little to nothing has been done about that.
Households in the area are currently living in fear of the potential health hazards should the mast be put up
Aside the potential health hazards, they also complain of the real possibility of the mast falling on houses and people in the event of any heavy rainstorm. This is worrying and has created serious discomfort among residents in the area.
While they remain helpless in getting the attention of authorities to address their safety concerns, workers on the site are busily working day and night to complete the project as soon as they can.
We are therefore calling on all well meaning Ghanaians to come to our aid before it gets out of hand!!
