Some voters in the Amasaman Constituency in the Ga West Municipal have complained about the bad road network in the Constituency.
They said the bad state of roads was affecting economic activities and needed to be addressed in time.
Madam Rose Adoagyire, a herbalist, who resides at Kotoku, said the condition of the road network would determine the winner of the December polls.
Mrs Cecilia Assenso, a trader, said it had become difficult to move her goods around.
She noted that the nature of the road had caused transport fares to be high in the area, with the situation getting worse when it rained.
They called on the government to as a matter of urgency fix the road.
Others also complained about the lack of water and poor lighting system in the Constituency.
