Dorimon Naa, Wa West DCE lead massive clean-up exercise; threaten sanctions against recalcitrant residents

The Paramount Chief of Dorimon Traditional Area, Naa Alhaji Seidu Tungbani Salinbile II, along with the District Chief Executive for Wa West, Richard Wullo, recently organized a massive communal clean-up exercise to mark National Sanitation Day and World Cleanup Day. The cleanup focused on critical public areas such as the old Dorimon market, communal waste containers, the central market square, and the surrounding bushes near the health center.

Naa Salinbile II personally joined the effort, emphasizing the significance of environmental cleanliness in the traditional area. He stated, "The Paramount Chief himself coming out to do a clean-up sends a signal to his subjects that the matter is very serious. When the Paramount Chief comes out to help clean, it means that no other person within the traditional area has any right not to join."

The chief warned that future clean-up exercises would enforce stricter rules, with sanctions imposed on divisional chiefs and residents who fail to mobilize their communities. He hinted at the possibility of deploying security personnel to ensure compliance in the future. Naa Salinbile II linked the importance of sanitation to the overall health and productivity of the residents, asserting that a healthy population is more capable of supporting their families.
