City and county Chief Executive(MCE) for Bolgatanga Rex Asanga has comprehensive plans to deal callously with landlords who create without providing toilet amenities to their tenants. He records that there are several houses within the Municipality that have been rented out there but does not have toilet amenities for the tenants. He stated this worrying feature is certainly thwarting the effort at making certain sanitation conditions in the Higher East Regional capital associated with Bolgatanga are improved. “There are some houses that the homeowners have never cared to provide bathroom facilities. You have a 4 part house of 14 areas and people are staying presently there, I don’t think we should enable that to continue. Eventually, we will give landlords who have simply no toilet facilities to have to supply the facilities within a specific period other than that we will use the appropriate sanctions, if it indicates taking people to court for that court to give them purchase to provide toilets in their houses within 3 or 4 months, we have been prepared to do that, ” this individual said. “Sanitation is a real problem for the assembly. Despite the treatment by Zoomlion and also our very own interventions, it is becoming a huge problem. It is a problem due to the psyche and the mind plus thinking of us all. We think that it can be the duty of someone else to wash the mess that we trigger around. Until we all possess a certain mindset and choose that sanitation or maintaining our environment clean is a group responsibility and not just the responsibility associated with some laborers of the set up and Zoomlion, we will keep have the problem that we are experiencing. So I think that it is a significant problem. We are overwhelmed with however, collection. Zoomlion is doing the bid but I think that it must be not enough. ”Identifying the stressing trend of setting fireplace in refuse containers simply by unidentified people, the MCE said “All those huge containers have been burnt. Individuals set fire to the garbage in those containers and so they easily get spoilt. We now have a lot of them in our office and are supposed to replace them. Easily tell you the price of one, it is very a huge amount of money. So you see that will some communities you get presently there, because the container has been burned up and taken away, they do not have a receptacle for rubbish”. He insisted that the county is bent on making certain the sanitation condition increases and will change its technique by instilling some feeling of responsibility in inhabitants to keep their surroundings thoroughly clean. “So besides the decongestion as well as the revenue mobilization, sanitation is usually our third leg that individuals want to tackle very strenuously. And we are not going to tackle this by way of running after individuals and collecting their clutter, we are going to tackle it as well as create a sense of obligation in people. For instance, I don’t understand why somebody has a container, the kiosk next to the road as well as the person dumps rubbish through his/her container into the gutter and somebody else will come plus clean. We are going to make it a obligation of everybody who has a store, container or whatever to make sure that the gutter next to a person is kept clean. In case you clean your side, each other clean their side, we are solving the problem of sterilization, ” he posited.
