Kumasi court jails food vendor 20 Days for using open fire in market

A Kumasi district court has sentenced a food vendor to 20 days in prison for repeatedly using open fire to prepare food at the Alabar Market, in violation of public market regulations. Her Worship Deborah Gyawa Donkor of District Court Two at the Prempeh Assembly Hall handed down the ruling on Tuesday, March 17, after prosecutors argued that the vendor, Kande Seidu, ignored multiple directives from the Environmental Health Unit of the Manhyia South Sub-Metro Council.
