The Greater Regional Minister has taken a swipe at some Metropolitan, Municipal and District Chief Executives over the level of filth in the national capital, Accra.
The Minister slammed the underperforming MMDCEs and asked why their respective areas were in filth.
During a meeting with the MMDCEs on Monday, August 14, Henry Quartey said he was happy about the level of filth and indiscipline on our roads in some parts of the region.
“Have you been seeing people working with ‘aboboyaa’ [Tricycle] still on our motorway? Can we say it is hardworking? Trotro is still loading around Accra Mall, is that hardworking? Korley Klottey – rubbish around graphic road – hardworking? AMA, Kinbu, Tudu everywhere rubbish – hardworking?” he quizzed.
“I want us to mark ourselves. Hon. Agbana, Agbogbloshie has been turned into a refuse dump. Is it hardworking? Are you aware that the place we cleared people are still dumping?
But Mr. Agbana responded saying that the place is no longer a refuse dump since July.
The Minister was however not impressed and wondered why it took Mr. Agbana two years after the onion traders had been relocated for him to end the indiscriminate disposal of waste there.
Henry Quartey added that the ‘aboboyaa’ [Tricycles] are still plying the motorway although various conversations have been had on that.
