Why force an impossible, irrational idea to create more enemies, NDC?
The NDC propaganda led activities has no constitutional binding on any one as it's a matter voluntary calling for help.
The Chiefs should be inviting those who have failed their responsibility to ensure we have clean envir ...

Is voluntary work now a law in Ghana. Does the assembly pay the workers of this company during the time that they are supposed to do the clean up. Is it not the assembly's duty to have a formal system of garbage collection. C ...
