The cleanup initiative was a collaboration between the BuzStop Boys and Wode Maya, aligning with Eid al-Fitr celebrations in Ghana.
Since their emergence over a year ago, the BuzStop Boys have carried out numerous sanitation projects across the country.
They have previously worked with other notable figures, including actress Nana Ama McBrown, to promote environmental cleanliness.
These individuals are doing excellent work, and we should acknowledge and recognize their efforts. I would like to suggest that our Honorable Regional Minister provide support to them in clearing and cleaning the clogged drains along the main and ceremonial streets in the city, as AMA and sub-metros seem to be overwhelmed. This is my humble suggestion. Shalom.
