The Ministry of Local Government and Rural Development (MLGRD) is to reintroduce sanitation inspectors into the system to reinforce the objectives of the National Sanitation Day (NSD) campaign.
The sanitation inspectors, popularly known as “nsama sama’, used to move from house to house to ensure that people kept their homes and environments clean and had powers to sanction people for not keeping their surroundings clean.
Alhaji Collins Dauda, the Minister for Local Government and Rural Development, announced this on a NSD campaign tour of the Eastern Region and stated that, the Government had already set aside funds for the processes leading to the re-introduction the sanitation inspectorate.
The Minister, who was addressing some traditional councils in the Eastern Region, including the New Juaben, Yilo and Manya Krobo, Fanteakwa and Akwamu on separate visits, said Ghana’s sanitation situation was very poor and the Government was determined to improve upon it.
