Ghanaians have started planting plantains on streets with potholes in a bid to get the government to repair the roads.

But this is not the first time, citizens of a country have done something similar on their roads to get their state authorities to fix the potholes on their roads, reports kuulpeeps.com.

Wanksy, an anonymous artist from Greater Manchester, England used washable paint to draw penises around potholes in his neighbourhood. Within 48 hours, the authorities had fixed all the potholes.

This time the incident was not happening in a certain rural town, this was in Accra, the capital of the Republic of Ghana.

Planting for food and jobs does not mean planting in potholes. Some residents i have! @NAkufoAddo pic.twitter.com/bfRbAG9ojr
