A research conducted by Educate Ghana Summit in Accra which is the capital city and the heart of this country tells that, Accra is covered with filth. We only need attitudinal change to keep our surroundings clean because, “Attitude is everything”.
The research was conducted at the following places;
Makola market, Tudu, CMB, Dansoman, Mamprobi, Alajo, Tesano, Kokomlemle, Adabraka, Osu,. Tema Station, Agbobloshie, Kaneshie Market and Station, Achimota Mile 7, Abeka Lapaz.
We think the Accra metropolitan assembly is wasting resources on some unnecessary activities. We observed that there were few bins for hawkers and pedestrians to keep used sachets and rubbers. Fellow Ghanaians, let’s develop a positive attitude and avoid littering to keep Ghana clean. We need attitudinal change to transform Ghana.
Moreover, the lamentable thing observed was one junction, one heaped rubbish. Also, the amusing thing is that, we saw “Keep Accra Clean” cars just moving without making any effort to clean the environment. Also, why should we wait for someone to instruct us to do the right thing? We need attitudinal change to keep Ghana clean.
Mr. Boadi William has therefore, implored the sanitation ministry and the Accra Metropolitan Assembly to do more works than the talking. He urged the MMDAs again to work with the ministry and to superpose their duties to Keep Accra clean and make the city the cleanest. We need attitudinal change.
Recommendations
1. H.E. President Nana Addo must collapse the sanitation ministry and use our tax for Free S.H.S immediately. For It’s good for nothing ministry now. We need ‘tankas’ to do the job.
2. The Accra Metropolitan Assembly must cease the talks and do more works.
3. Government must be bold and ban plastics in the country.
4. The EPA should use recycling method to reduce rubbish.
5. The Environmental Protection Agency must activate the environment by laws with the help of the olden days town council also known as ‘tankas’ without any face looking.
6. Bins must be seen at every corner to keep rubbish.
7. Ghanaians must develop a positive attitude to keep Ghana clean.
Workers’ day message
“A man is not paid for having a head and hands, but for using them” – Elbert Hubbard.
We must learn to respect the hard work and dedication of immense hard work our labour puts. Let us come together on the occasion of international workers’ Day to thank them for their labor and for their dedication.
Mathew 5:16
In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your father in heaven. Amen.
Educate Ghana Summit is pleading with all to work diligently to make Ghana great and strong. Warm wishes on May Day to all.
Long live Ghana
