Suame MP Lawyer John Darko Expresses Sympathy for Fire Victims and Calls for Government Assistance

Lawyer John Darko, the Member of Parliament-elect for the Suame Constituency, recently visited the site of the devastating Suame-Magazine fire to offer his condolences and support to the affected artisans.

During his visit, Lawyer Darko met with the leadership and members of the Artisan Association, offering words of comfort and expressing his commitment to supporting their recovery efforts. The fire destroyed shops, vehicles, and goods worth millions of cedis, leaving many artisans in a desperate situation. These artisans, who depend on repairing cars and selling goods at Suame-Magazine, have lost valuable assets, including weeks of hard work and investments.

In his address, Lawyer Darko acknowledged the significant financial toll the fire has had on artisans from the Suame Constituency, many of whom operate on loans. He emphasized that the destruction of their goods has left them in an extremely difficult position. He appealed to the government and other relevant stakeholders for immediate assistance to help the artisans recover and rebuild their businesses.

In addition to calling for aid, Lawyer Darko assured the artisans that he would advocate for the establishment of a fire station at Suame-Magazine to prevent such devastating incidents in the future. His promise to work toward long-term solutions shows his dedication to the welfare of his constituents and his commitment to ensuring that the community is better protected moving forward.

The MP-elect’s visit and pledge of support reflect his genuine concern for the artisans and the broader community, reinforcing his determination to address the immediate and future needs of those affected by the tragedy.
