As a nation, we were able to liberate ourselves of colonial rule and became a sovereign state to be governed by ourselves: this is a remarkable achievement in Africa and it worth celebrating but we have failed to address a major concern of our society, cleanliness.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Frimpong insisted that Ghanaians must take full responsibility of keeping Ghana clean, hence the need to celebrate the nation\u2019s sovereignty by clearing the debris piled up in various parts of the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis would afford us to the opportunity to live in a cleaner country, reduce the perennial problem of flooding, decrease the likelihood of outbreak of diseases and provide a platform where we can fraternize and socialize with our neighbours in the community,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Frimpong called on waste management companies to make available their personnel and equipment to make the exercise successful if reasons with the Foundation\u2019s proposal.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>By: Abdul Karim Naatogmah\/citifmonline.com\/Ghana<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Aliu Mahama Foundation is proposing to government to declare July 1, National Clean-up Day.
