The Western Regional Minister, Joseph Nelson, has warned Metropolitan, Municipal and District Chief Executives in the region against entertaining poor sanitation management in their respective areas.
He said his administration would not tolerate or countenance any lackadaisical attitude that potentially could land the region in another cholera outbreak, as occurred last year.
Consequently, he said his administration would collaborate effectively with all the Assemblies to apply the appropriate measures required to combat any form of disease outbreak in the region through proper sanitation management.
Addressing Metropolitan, Municipal and District Chief Executives (MMDCEs) at the maiden meeting with the team, following their confirmations, the minister tasked them to deal decisively with waste management, sanitation and hygiene in order to combat all forms of disease outbreaks in the region.
