USED CAR DEALERS ASSOCIATION OF GHANA CALLS FOR HELP


The Used Car Dealers Association of Ghana (UCDAG) has called on the Millennium development Authority to be free and fair to all car dealers in the country. In a statement read by the secretary of the Used Car Dealers Association of Ghana Nana Bujey at a press conference in Accra, he alleged that a couple of months ago the MIDA on behalf of government promised to secure a land for the association but failed to fulfill their promise. According to him the securing of a new land for the association was part of the re-location of car sellers for work to begin on the three lane carriage way from Tetteh Quarshie to Dimples Inn Junction with two inter-changes from Apenkwa and Dimples Inn Junction which joins George Bush Motorway. He added that members of the UCDAG who dealt in used cars on the outskirts of the road earmarked for the high way expansion project was earlier promised a suitable place for them to re-locate but was to no avail. According to the secretary the association finds it surprising the sub car dealers that are the Greater Accra Used Car Dealers Association (GAUCDA) has been offered a parcel of land situated on the Spintex Road. "The association is nowhere near to the UCDAG in terms of the membership and is also the mother association of the whole country"Bujey said. He said it was very unfortunate for government act that way and denies them their portion of land as negotiated with the late minister of Finance and Economic Planning Kwadwo Baah Wiredu.The Association wanted to enquire from government through MIDA if truly a land has been acquired for them to relocate and why that the Chief Executive Officer of MIDA is making deliberate attempt to sabotage the association of their fair share of the land. They called the president and the various presidential candidates for intervention. "We are waiting patiently but with a serious expectation to hear something good".
