A significant amount of medical waste has been found washed ashore at Ngelekazo Beach, located near Beyin in the Jomoro Municipality.
This alarming discovery has raised serious concerns about public health and environmental safety, prompting calls for immediate action from local authorities and health officials.
Dr.
Kwesie, the leader of the Western New York League (WNYL), was among the first to address the issue, emphasizing the potential dangers posed by the medical waste. "The presence of medical waste on our beaches is not just an environmental concern; it poses a direct threat to public health," he stated during a press conference. "We must act swiftly to address this situation before it escalates into a more significant crisis." The medical waste, which reportedly includes used syringes, surgical gloves, and other hazardous materials, raises serious questions about the management and disposal of medical refuse in the region.
