A massive clean- up exercise has been organised at Akaporiso electoral area in the Obuasi East District to commence a District-wide Monthly clean up exercise.
The Obuasi East District Assembly (OEDA) has instituted a massive clean-up exercise across the entire electoral areas in the District, in the second week of every month.
This according to the District Chief Executive is intended to rekindle the communal spirit in residents and also maintain a cleaner environment. To ensure the sustainability of the Clean-up exercise, the DCE said ” we have strategically cited dustbins at vantage points which will be emptied through the supervision of Unit Committee members.
The DCE who was joined by the Member of Parliament for the area, Hon. Patrick Boakye Yiadom, the Presiding Member Hon Jeff Adjei, Heads of Department and members of the community, assured that the exercise will not be a flash in the pan.
Again, the Assembly has deployed Sanitary inspectors to enforce sanitation bye-laws of the District which will strictly deal with those who litter indiscriminately. ” We are also going to institute an award scheme which will recognise and award the cleanest electoral areas”.
Dr. Patrick Boakye- Yiadom, the Member of Parliament for the Obuasi East Constituency lauded the initiative of the Assembly. He mentioned that he could not sit at home but join residents of Akaporiso to clean their environment.
