The incident occurred at a public function in the area Wednesday.
Speaking to Starr News Kyekyeku said he finds the incident to be a gross violation of his rights.
“I’m disturbed because in the face of the whole public; if your footwear is taken from you forcibly, it is very disturbing.
“The footwear was being displayed in the market and anybody at all could have bought similar footwear and there are so many people who might have purchased similar wear traditionally.
