Reconsider termination of Zoomlion contract; assemblies are not ready to take over – Nitiwul tells Local Gov’t Minister
The Chairman of Parliament’s Assurances Committee, Dominic Aduna Bingab Nitiwul, has urged the Minister for Local Government, Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs, Ahmed Ibrahim, to reconsider the decision to terminate Zoomlion Ghana Limited’s waste management contract, arguing that Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies (MMDAs) currently lack the capacity to assume full responsibility.
The Committee Chairman urged the government to consider maintaining the existing arrangement while strengthening the capacity of the assemblies to eventually manage waste collection independently.
He made the comments when the Local Government Minister appeared before Parliament’s Assurances Committee on Wednesday, July 9.
