The statue of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, located at the Effia Nkwanta Regional Hospital Roundabout in Sekondi, Western Region, has been repaired after being vandalized by unknown individuals.
A video circulating on social media shows a gentleman fixing the damage caused to the statue. The Ghana Police Service has initiated an investigation to identify and apprehend the perpetrators responsible for this act of vandalism.
According to the police, preliminary findings indicate that the statue’s left leg was damaged, and the accompanying plaque was removed.
The police have assured the public that efforts are underway to bring the culprits to justice and restore the statue to its original state.
The statue, unveiled in November 2024, was intended to honour several key projects initiated under President Akufo-Addo’s administration in the region.
These projects include the rehabilitation of Effia-Nkwanta Regional Hospital, the construction of the 3-tier Sinohydro interchange, and the Takoradi Market Circle redevelopment.
However, the statue’s erection sparked heated debates among some residents, who questioned its relevance and appropriateness.
