The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Let Love Lead, a Non- Governmental Organisation (NGO), Mr Dawood Akwesi Agyemang, has urged Ghanaians to desist from poor sanitation behaviours and embrace clean environmental practices.

Speaking to the media during the inaugural National Sanitation Day exercise at Nima in the Ayawaso North Assembly, an initiative declared by His Excellency John Dramani Mahama, Mr Agyemang expressed his enthusiasm for the campaign, calling it a vital step towards transforming the country's landscape.

Mr Agyemang cautioned citizens against the indiscriminate dumping of waste into gutters and open public spaces, warning that such practices undermine public health and city infrastructure.

He also urged residents to stop littering and to practise good sanitation, referencing the heavy rains that hit Accra on Monday, June 29. He noted that the NGO visited several flooded communities to assess the damage to homes and property.

Calling the situation "it was sad, it was pity, heartbreaking," he stressed the need for proper household waste management.

He emphasised that refuse must be stored properly at household level and handed over to designated waste-management stakeholders authorised to handle disposal.

Mr. Agyemang made the remarks after donating items such as bottled water, biscuits and other products to support the Ayawaso North Assembly during the sanitation day.

"It is time to clean Ghana. It is time to make our city very beautiful," Mr Agyemang stated, emphasising that civic pride begins with personal responsibility.

He noted that achieving a pristine environment requires collective action, adding that every Ghanaian must make a conscious effort to practise and promote good sanitation behaviour daily.

Mr Agyemang further called on the government, guardians and relevant stakeholders to support the NGO financially. He said the organisation's impact is currently limited by financial constraints and urged those groups to assist so Let Love Lead can continue advancing its vital mission.
