Mahama joins Alajo residents for second day of national clean-up exercise

President John Dramani Mahama has joined residents, sanitation workers and local authorities at Alajo in the Greater Accra Region for the second day of the national clean-up exercise, as efforts continue to address waste management challenges and improve environmental sanitation in flood-prone communities.

The first day of the exercise has brought together Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs), Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies (MMDAs), public and private institutions, the security services, educational institutions, waste management companies and members of the public to undertake coordinated clean-up activities.

Speaking during the exercise, President Mahama said the immediate priority is to remove the heaps of waste and ensure they are transported to approved disposal sites.
