The Outdoor Advertising Unit of the Sekondi-Takoradi Metropolitan Assembly (STMA) is to destroy all unauthorized posters and signages within the metropolis.
The Assembly would also punish individuals and associations who without permission mount these signages.
Mr. George Amartey, Head of Outdoor Advertising unit of STMA, told the GNA that the assembly was losing millions of cedis in revenue due to illegal activities by such institutions.
He said the automatic renewal policy had been grossly abused by such bodies who hang banners. Mr. Amatey said that his outfit would strengthen their monitoring operations on all billboards, posters and sign posts within the metropolis adding that: �We will remove all unregistered and those without permit�.
The Director singled out churches as worse offenders in indiscriminate postings and hanging of banners as well as erecting of signposts.
