The Ghana Private Road Transport Union has directed all members
operating under its banner to ban passengers from littering during
journeys.
The directive issued by the National Chairman of the union, Alhaji Yaw
Manu is to improve environmental sanitation in the country in line
with the National Sanitation Day.
Minister of Local Government, Julius Debrah gave the directive when he
called on National executives of the union as part of efforts by the
ministry to get all stakeholders on board the sanitation campaign.
The minister announced the creation of a Small and Medium Enterprise
(SME) package under a sanitation module to provide toilet facilities
through a loan scheme.
Managing Director of Fidelity Bank, Edward Effah, expressed the banks
readiness to support the scheme.
A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) is expected to be signed during
the next sanitation day.
Mr Debrah also called on management of Latex Foam to solicit support
for the campaign.
