The Mayor of Accra, Hon. Elizabeth Kwatsoe Sackey, has paid a working visit to some communities in the metropolis to inspect the progress of work on the construction of some infrastructure development in the education, health, and sanitation sectors.
Among the projects were a sanitation court, to prosecute sanitation offences and enhance the city’s efforts towards maintaining cleanliness and sanitation standards, a school project at Avenor, a 3-story 18-unit classroom block and a 3-unit nursery block with a computer laboratory, library, laboratories, and playground for the Independence Avenue Cluster of Schools, a two-story medical storage facility at the Mamprobi Hospital as well as an ultra-modern abattoir at Jamestown.
Mayor Sackey, in an interview with the media after the tour, emphasised the importance of these infrastructure projects in driving socio-economic development and improving the quality of life for residents.
She expressed satisfaction with the progress and reiterated the Assembly’s commitment to completing these projects within the stipulated timelines to benefit city dwellers.
She pointed out that the establishment of a dedicated sanitation court in the AMA reflects the city’s commitment to addressing sanitation challenges through the enforcement of its byelaws, adding that any individual caught littering and dumping refuse indiscriminately would be dealt with by the law.
