Ghana appears poised to address its persistent sanitation problems through a nationwide push backed by citizens, media outlets, traditional leaders and religious figures, according to Ahmed Ibrahim, the minister for local government, chieftaincy and religious affairs.

The minister made these remarks during the November national sanitation day event, where he observed cleanup activities across three municipalities: La Dade-Kotopon, Ledzokuku and Krowor. Monitoring took place along several routes, from Tsui Bleoo last stop extending toward Mobil, plus areas near Nungua Secondary School reaching Addongonno Street and the railway line. Ibrahim noted that participation levels reached roughly 98 percent, though he acknowledged that obtaining adequate equipment remains a hurdle. The ministry continues working to secure necessary items such as dustbins, containers, compactors, wheelbarrows, rubber boots and shovels.

President John Dramani Mahama will soon introduce new sanitation equipment, and officials plan to coordinate with municipal leaders and partner agencies to add streetlights for better visibility during cleanup events. Ibrahim said he chose private talks over public statements after the Environmental Service Providers Association issued a November 7 deadline, and ministry representatives have since held productive conversations with the group to resolve outstanding issues.
