The La Dade-Kotopon Municipal Assembly (LaDMA) will soon launch Grid Community programme as part of efforts to promote hygiene and other welfare issues in the community, the Coordinating Director of LaDMA, Daniel Nkrumah, has said.
The initiative, Nkrumah stated, as part of the implementation processes, the whole municipality would be divided into zones or communities and given a unique name for identification with selected volunteers from the community as leaders. "We are going to implement a Grid Community programme as a means of curbing the continuous littering of our gutters and the indiscriminate dumping of refuse in the municipality," Mr Nkrumah said.
The Coordinating Director made this known on Saturday during the monthly sanitation day clean-up programme in the area.
He explained that the core duty of the volunteers who would be selected from among the community, security services, NADMO, LaDMA and others was to ensure sanitation laws were adhered to on daily bases and also channel concerns of their area to the assembly.
