Excavator deployed to clear debris at Ashaley Botwe-School Junction after clean-up exercise

An excavator has been deployed to the Ashaley Botwe–School Junction in Accra to clear and evacuate heaps of debris collected during the ongoing nationwide clean-up exercise as authorities intensify efforts to ensure proper waste disposal.

The heavy-duty equipment is removing silt, refuse and other waste gathered by volunteers and sanitation workers during the clean-up operation to prevent the debris from being washed back into drains or left along roadsides.

The exercise forms part of the two-day national clean-up that has commenced in seven flood-affected regions across the country.
