Military personnel from Wa have been deployed to Poyentanga , a community in the Wa West District of the Upper West Region to enforce the demolition of houses and stores located close to the Poyentanga market. The government plans to construct a 24-hour market in the community to boost commerce and economic activity in the area.

Affected residents and shop owners have been ordered to vacate their properties two weeks ago, with no compensation or alternative resettlement options provided. Many community members are expressing concern and frustration over the sudden displacement, fearing the loss of their homes and livelihoods.

Info Radio is closely monitoring the situation from Poyentanga and will continue to bring updates as the developments unfold. Local authorities urge residents to cooperate, though tensions are reportedly rising in the community.

Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
