The whole of Ghana lost about 60% of its productivity because of a clueless leader. How do you halt economic activities for over half a day? Which civilised society will do what Mahama led the whole country into? Instead of creating jobs with this problem, he chose to take away jobs with it. Incompetence is a disease.

When I was in Accra I went from Tema to kasoa. Thr knly places I saw trash bins outside in public were in areas like cantonment, east legon, airport. Some people also have trash bins on their compounds at home..it was hard for me to see trashbins outside. If I eat a banana and want to throw out the trash it's hard for me. I don't see any trash bins. When I ask people where to throw the trash they tell me to leave it on the ground..go makola smh you see trash everywhere even in the parking lot smh. Even in the home I stayed in I had to tell residents to pick yp trash from the compound. On weekends I tried to get the boys to engage in gouse cleanups and they get upset with me..very lazy people. Every one wants to like like a king but refuse to work..idiots

JOHN KWAME DRAMANI MAHAMA, THIS CLEAN UP EXERCISE AND THE TALK ARE LARGELY POINTLESS AND ONLY USEFUL FOR SHORT TERM PUBLICITY. THE MAIN SOURCE OF THIS PROBLEM IS THE LACK OF ELECTED MAYORS AND DCES. YOU HAVE TRAVELLED AROUND THE WORLD INCLUDING BELARUS, BRAZIL, COLOMBIA, RUSSIA, CHINA, INDONESIA, MANY EUROPEAN COUNTRIES, UNITED STATES, CANADA, MEXICO, SOUTH AFRICA AND YOU DID NOT SEE THIS LEVEL OF SANITATION PROBLEM AS IT IS IN GHANA. THE PROBLEM IS THAT YOU APPOINT ALL THE DCES AND MAYORS AND YOU KNOW VERY WELL THEY ARE NOT DOING ANY SERIOUS WORK BUT JUST BUILDING THE PARTY STRUCTURES AND CHOPPING MONEY.

GO THROUGH THE LEGAL PROCESS AND AMEND THE CONSTITUTION SO THAT LOCAL PEOPLE CAN ELECT THEIR OWN DCES AND MAYORS AND YOU WILL SEE THE DIFFERENCE IN THE QUALITY OF SANITATION INN GHANA WITHIN TWO YEARS.

Who to the president that big lies that waste trucks are available on stand bye to collect domestic waste in the communities there is no such thing currently going on . Ghana is lacking behind in the area of waste disposal and the president must take a bold step to get Accra a well organize system for waste collection and disposal. With the issue on citizen's dumping waste in the gutters I side with the president that it must stop however, the Government must take a pragmatic approach to ensure that we start using the unemployed youth to start nation wide payment and grassing along the major street and our communities. We have to make sure we reduce the sand getting into our gutters. The whole country is dusty and dirty with plastic rubber. The resetting of Ghana must factor beautification else we will come back to zero.

Zoomlion (or any other single company) cannot clean all Ghana. It was totally wrong for NPP to have signed an agreement with the company to be the SOLE waste management company in the whole of Ghana.

Yes, Zoomlion must be brought back, but there must be several other waste management companies for other parts of Ghana. This is how it is done in countries where waste management is effective.

The indiscipline disposal of rubbish contribute to choke of gutters , drainages,streams, lagoons and rivers in our cities especially,Accra ,Kumasi , Takoradi etc.If there was twice monthly clean up events in Ghana especially in our cities,town and villages , Ghana will sell less floods, reduced malaria sickness,less mosquito breeding areas and boost in tourism to earn foreign currencies.The should be provision of bins in the cities for rubbish drops and pick ups at various points and also education to BIN and NOT THROW RUBBISH ,God in is own wisdom gave Ghana free SUN ,SEA and SAND ( beaches) which when well developed we shall have tourist attraction to our beaches to enjoy the Sea and Sun especially when it's cold in Europe, America, Canada and farm East . Moreover there should be more tree plantation in our cities and banning of hawking and trade activities in the middle of streets, pavements and kerbs .The should be banning of erection of kiosks for accommodation and trading activities on pavements in our cities.All trading activities should be restricted only at market places and so chaotic as we see on rivers banks and on pavements in the our cities now

Show the ignorants what happens when you throw your trash in the gutters. Show them where it ends up and then causing all the flooding. The small and big gutters must be kept clean.

All John Mahama does is to tell us what the problem is. Then when it comes to providing solutions he only engages in show show. We have made a very big mistake. Look at the magnitude of the choked drains, then we go attacking it with a handful of pick axes and shovels while most of the people stand looking on? Where were all the DRIP machines Akufo Addo Bawumia left in every district? The excavators, the loaders and the tipper trucks where are they all now. In all the show show there wasn't a single DRIP machine. The coordinator of DRIP, Kofi Adams has resigned; who is his replacement? May be all the machines have been shared and there is nothing to coordinate anymore.

The best way to implement a proper drainage system in Ghana requires combining heavy-duty structural engineering with strict solid waste containment and enforced zoning regulations. Because Ghana struggles with intense tropical downpours and severe plastic pollution, traditional open concrete gutters easily choke and overflow, leading to chronic urban flooding. A proper, long-term solution must shift away from standard open gutters toward comprehensive, resilient infrastructure.
