Agona west: The Agona West Municipal Directorate of Zoomlion Ghana Limited has undertaken a fumigation exercise at local dumping sites. This initiative aims to prevent disease outbreaks amidst a severe water crisis affecting the Agona West, Agona East, and Gomoa Central Districts, enhancing sanitation and public health in the region.

According to Ghana News Agency, the management indicated that the exercise was part of proactive health and sanitation measures designed to protect residents from potential infections, as the water shortages have exacerbated hygiene issues in the area.

Mr. Christian Ocran, the Director overseeing the Agona West, Gomoa Central, and Agona East Districts, stated after the exercise that the intervention was crucial to mitigate possible health threats during the ongoing crisis. He emphasized the importance of addressing any health-related implications for residents promptly.

Mr. Ocran assured that Zoomlion Ghana Limited remains committed to its corporate social responsibility of safeguarding public health. The company is collaborating with the three administrative districts to foster a clean and healthy environment, recently receiving new vehicles to bolster its fleet and improve sanitation operations.

He also warned residents against the indiscriminate disposal of refuse on streets, in gutters, and unauthorized areas, urging them to contribute to efforts aimed at maintaining cleanliness and preventing disease outbreaks.
