Residents of Tamale urged to stop dumping light ashes into refuse containers

The Deputy Coordinator of Waste Manage at the Tamale Metropolitan Assembly, Hamidu Luliwe is urging residents of the metropolis to stop dumping light ashes into communal refuse containers. According to him, the light ash damages their containers as well as destroys the land field site since it is an engineered land field site which is unfriendly to fire. Mr. Hamidu was speaking to Fiila News on the assembly’s periodic mass evacuation exercise of refuse heaps in the metropolitan area. The evacuation exercise which started somewhere last week has since clear refuse dumps in several communities in the metropolis. The Deputy Coordinator of Waste Management says the Assembly’s aims at clearing the city out of filth and is expected to use the entire week or more to evacuate all refuse heaps in the metropolis. On those refuse heaps that are on the blind site of the team, he urges the general public to endeavour to inform the assembly to take action. On the second edition of the National Sanitation Day, Mr. Hamidu announced that the exercise will take on Saturday 6th December, 2014, saying preparations have been made and the various stakeholders have also been notified. He therefore urged residents to come out in their numbers to support the laudable course.
