The National President of the House of Chiefs, Ogyeahoho Yaw Gyebi II, has emphasized the importance of collective responsibility in maintaining sanitation.

Speaking at the Bibiani Anhwiaso Bekwai Municipal National Sanitation Day program, he urged the government to provide dustbins to all assemblies to be placed on major roadsides to prevent the choking of gutters.

"I urge all Ghanaians to come out in their numbers to help clean our surroundings, desilt gutters, and weed unkempt public spaces," he said."Let us make this a nationwide habit that reflects our identity as environmentally conscious people."
