n line with the government’s call to restore the traditional values of cleanliness, the Ga Central Municipal Assembly, led by the Municipal Chief Executive, Hon. Emmanuel Adotey Allotey embarked on a successful monthly clean-up exercise across the municipality last Saturday, December 13, 2025.
With the Awoshie-A Lang electoral area as the community in focus last weekend, the exercise began at 6am and ended at 12noon.
The clean-up focused primarily on desilting of heavily choked drains, weeding of overgrown grasses along pavements and sweeping the median and frontages of shops while they remain closed until the exercise ended.

Hon. Emmanuel Adotey Allotey in an interview, stressed that maintaining clean communities is a shared responsibility and communal clean-up exercises should not be left to authorities alone.
‘It is essential for all members of the community to come together to participate in such activities to foster true communal development and I want to use this opportunity to applaud all volunteers,’ he said.
He also indicated that there was another team simultaneously engaging in a similar exercise in the Ablekuma electoral area, specifically the Ablekuma curve.
