People who live near Kumasi city need help. They say bus drivers ask for much more money than they should. The new leader of their area, Dr. Frank Amoakohene, must fix this problem.

Many people take buses from Dr. Mensah station. The drivers make them pay extra money by stopping the bus before the right place. This means people must take many buses and pay more to reach home.

A person who lives in Adwumaim said something that used to cost 5 cedis costs 20 cedis in the morning. The problem becomes worse at night when people leave work. Some drivers want 20 cedis for small trips that should cost 5 cedis.

The drivers say they charge more because fuel prices went up. The people who ride the buses think this makes no sense. They fight with the drivers about the money. These fights can become very bad. Someone even died during one of these fights in a place called Ahema Kokoben.

The people want police officers to watch the bus stations. They believe the police can stop drivers from taking extra money, catch bad drivers, and make them follow the rules.

Everyone hopes Dr. Amoakohene will help them. They want him to ensure that drivers charge fair prices, which would help many people save money and feel safer when they travel.
