The
residents who believed the police are in the streets to see to it that there
will be peace after the rulings of the election petition said they have lived
in peace and will never fight because of elections.
According to the residents, they will live in peace
to serve as an example to other regional capitals in the country. “Sunyani is
calm and it will remain calm after everything”, one resident assured.
Speaking to Daily Guide a resident who gave his
name as Richard Kusi said he has lived in Sunyani for the past fifty-five years
and has witnessed several elections in the country but has not seen any one
fighting with his or her neighbour because of elections.
He believed that after the Supreme Court ruling on the election petition there will be peace in the town and the country as a whole.

Mr.
Kusi called on the police to use the information
service van to move to the places believe to be volatile and educate
people on the need to maintain peace rather than parading the police in
the
streets of the regional capital.
“There are many districts in the region that are
known for election violence, so they should go there and educate them rather
than staying in the regional capital which has always been peaceful”, he
advised.
He however mentioned
that there is sanity in the regional capital because taxi drivers are not
parking anyhow, but the police are still creating inconvenience for some people
because of their presence and the amour cars that goes round the city.
