Provide dustbins to support cleaner city agenda
Dear Editor,
I take great pride in witnessing the country’s ongoing development. However, amidst this progress, there is a pressing issue that I feel compelled to address.
In recent times, I have observed a concerning level of filth in several major cities, including Accra, Kumasi, and Takoradi.
While I acknowledge that other regions also face similar challenges, I wish to focus my attention on these three urban centres.
The sight of litter strewn across streets and public spaces is disheartening and diminishes the overall beauty of our cities. It is imperative that we take proactive measures to address this issue and uphold cleanliness standards.
One practical step towards achieving this goal is the widespread provision of dustbins in strategic locations throughout these areas.
By installing dustbins in key public areas, such as market places, parks, and busy streets, we can encourage residents and visitors alike to dispose of their waste responsibly.
This simple yet effective solution has the potential to significantly reduce littering and contribute to a cleaner environment for all.
I appeal to both the government and Zoomlion to prioritise the provision of dustbins in these identified areas.
Together, let us work towards creating cleaner, healthier, and more aesthetically pleasing cities for present and future generations to enjoy.
Maxwell Ahenkorah,
Kumasi.
