The Former President of the Republic of Ghana and flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress(NDC) , H.E John Dramani Mahama has underscored the need for not only legislation but attitudinal change in dealing with sanitation challenges in the country.
The former President made this known when he shared a video of refuse which had been dumped in gutters in Asylum Down, Accra and being washed away by running water
He noted that although Ghana needs serious legislation to deal with poor sanitation practices, the fight won’t be won unless people in the country change their bad attitude of indiscriminately dumping refuse especially plastics on waterways.
In one of his post sighted Ghanawish.com reads as below
“1st rains at Asylum Down, Accra. We really need drastic legislation about plastics, but most of all we need attitudinal change about how we handle litter”.
