Filth engulfs Jubilee House, Army Officers' Mess

Filth engulfs Jubilee House

Masses of refuse could be spotted along the wall of the presidential seat as well as the 37 Military Hospital.

Even the refuse dropped in the vehicles are swept onto the street and nearby gutters at the various bus terminals and stops.

Nana Addo in his 2019 State of the Nation Address (SONA) said he remains determined in making Accra the cleanest city in Africa by the end of his first term.

He remarked that the government is set to launch a sanitation brigade that will see to the orderliness of keeping the city clean.

"We will intensify our efforts in making Accra the cleanest city in Africa," he said.
