The Mayor of Accra, Mr Mohammed Nii Adjei Sowah, has given a three- day ultimatum to commercial sex workers who have taken over the railway line area close to the VIP station, to vacate or face eviction on Thursday.

He gave the order when the Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA) embarked on a decongestion exercise on Monday to get rid of street hawkers and illegal structures in the metropolis.

Some parts of Accra including the Central Business District, Abeka Lapaz, Kaneshie Market Area, N1 highway, Kwame Nkrumah Interchange and along the Odorkor-Kwashieman road will all be decongested in the coming days.
