Asutifi South Assembly threatens court action against traders who skip clean-up exercises

The Asutifi South District Assembly in the Ahafo Region has issued a stern warning to traders who fail to participate in their regular clean-up exercises. District Chief Executive Benjamin Assabil Donkor stated that some traders deliberately ignore the clean-up activities while continuing to operate their shops. This behavior is in direct violation of the Assembly's sanitation bye-laws.

Donkor announced that traders who do not participate in the clean-up exercises without a valid reason will be summoned before the court to explain their actions. The Assembly is determined to ensure that such practices are not allowed to undermine their efforts to improve sanitation and maintain a clean environment in the district.

The Krontihemaa of Hwidiem, Nana Pokuaa Ama Nyarko, has also vowed to take action against traders who refuse to participate in the clean-up exercises. She said such individuals would be summoned to the palace, where the chiefs would take appropriate measures against them. Isaac Bediako Asare, the Environmental Health Analyst for Asutifi South District, urged residents to support the efforts to improve sanitation. He emphasized that cleanliness is essential to preventing disease outbreaks in the district.
