Greater Accra Regional Minister, Henry Quartey says he will not entertain abusive use of sirens in the Capital City.

The hooting of sirens by drivers, particularly Members of Parliament, Ministers, government and public officials, clergymen among others have become rampant in the city.

This situation is very worrying and residents in the city have been looking for solutions.

It appears the residents are finally going to have answer to their call.

The Regional Minister has pledged to deal drastically with those who blow sirens in the city.

He revealed on Peace FM's 'Kokrokoo' that he is going to make directives to address this problem.

He warned that no one, whether a government official, Member of Parliament or dignitary, will be exempt from the directives.

Noting that he has the backing of the President, the Minister stated emphatically that there will be no preferential treatment to any person who abuses a siren.

“My colleagues will not be happy with me but, boy, I'm going to do it because once I have the backing from the President; it's good,” he told Kwami Sefa Kayi on Peace FM's ''Kokrokoo''.
