Minister for Sanitation and Water Resources, Cecilia Abena Daapah has said everyday should be seen as a sanitation day instead of monthly clean up.

According to the sector Minister the monthly exercise has not been stopped but rather being re-branded making sanitation everyday affair.

“The President’s dream of making Accra the cleanest city in Africa is a collective responsibility and each and everyone has a role to play. Government would play its part, but the media should be at the front runner in this campaign”.

She urged the media to find space to educate Ghanaians about their responsibilities and soon the Ministry will engage in active media campaign.

And further commended the media in an interview for bringing issues of sanitation to the fore and to enrich national discussion on the matter, as President Nana Akufo-Addo has said he wants to make Accra the cleanest city in Africa.
