The Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA) will embark on a massive clean-up exercise on Saturday, September 3, 2022 to rid the city of filth. This forms part of the continuing efforts to keep the city clean.
In a statement issued by the AMA, it indicated that the exercise will be undertaken in the Ashiedu-Keteke, Ablekuma South and Okaikoi South Sub-Metropolitan Districts.
All shops, markets, and other business entities within the jurisdiction of the AMA are expected to be closed from 6am to 10am to make way for the exercise.
The Assembly is therefore urging all residents, corporate entities, traders and shop owners to comply with the directive and participate fully in the exercise to ensure a clean city in accordance with the AMA Sanitation Bye-law 2017 and the Operation Clean Your Frontage Bye-law which will be strictly enforced by Environmental Health Officers (‘Saman Saman’).
“The general public’s maximum cooperation is being solicited to ensure a clean city where we can live in and love it,” the statement said.
