The Greater Accra Regional Minister, Ms Linda Ocloo, has vis­ited some major mar­kets in Accra to assess sanitation challenges and outline plans for improvement.

The tour, which included the Kwame Nkrumah Interchange, Kane­shie, and Lapaz markets, was part of the National Democratic Congress' "Clean Up Ghana" initiative.

During the visit, Ms Ocloo em­phasised that sanitation and waste management remained key priorities and announced plans to introduce a comprehensive waste management policy aimed at ensuring cleaner public spaces.

She said her plans would focus on promoting waste segregation, provid­ing garbage bins in public areas, and strengthening the sanitation depart­ments of Metropolitan, Municipal, and District Assemblies (MMDAs) to improve efficiency.
