Government must do more to tackle sanitation crisis – Bekwai MP

According to him, while the allocation of 10% of the District Assemblies Common Fund (DACF) towards sanitation is a step in the right direction, the funding must be channelled into long-term solutions.

Speaking in an interview with journalists, Mr Poku-Adusei said current interventions largely focus on addressing immediate sanitation problems rather than tackling their underlying causes.

He therefore called for a shift from short-term interventions towards investments in systems that can provide sustainable waste management and sanitation services.
