Filth chokes Korle drains as residents appeal for urgent action

Mr Laryea further revealed that the Assembly has begun distributing refuse containers in parts of Old Fadama and Agbogbloshie to improve waste collection and discourage indiscriminate dumping.

Residents and traders in the area blame the situation on the indiscriminate disposal of waste by some aboboyaa riders, kayayei, and residents of Old Fadama, saying the practice has left portions of the drainage system heavily clogged.

Meanwhile, some residents admitted that the absence of adequate refuse containers has forced many people to dump waste into the Korle drains.
