Christian religious leaders have been urged to utilise their influence during the Easter period to promote the culture of cleanliness and sanitation across the country.
This is because religious leaders can influence their followers to change their behaviour and mindset, particularly on the environment and sanitation.
The Minister of Local Government, Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs, Mr Ahmed Ibrahim, made the call yesterday in Accra, when he and his entourage visited some Christian religious institutions, including the Christian Council of Ghana (CCG), Presbyterian Church of Ghana, Headquarters, and the Seventh Day Adventist Church, in the Greater Accra region.
The engagements form part of broader consultations being held with faith-based organisations to galvanise national support and community participation for the promotion of culture of cleanliness and sanitation.
