Mawuleme Movement Leads Drive to Transform Ho into City of Beauty

According to ghana news agency:ccording to Ghana News Agency, Mr. Prince Amevi, Director of the Movement, stated that the recent painting and beautification of the Ahoe Roundabout was undertaken solely by the organization, which funded the purchase of all painting materials. In an interview, he mentioned that the exercise formed part of a broader campaign to enhance the aesthetic appeal of major intersections and public spaces within the municipality.

Mr. Amevi explained that the Movement planned to extend the initiative to other strategic locations, including the areas around KK House, Fidelity Bank, the Sokode Roundabout, and the stretch between the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) office and the Regional Police Headquarters. He expressed optimism that the planned painting projects would be completed ahead of this year's Asogli Te Za (Yam Festival), provided the Movement received the needed support from individuals, businesses, and organizations.

Mr. Amevi disclosed that the Movement had engaged the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to explore partnerships in environmental protection and sustainability. The collaboration would also support the Movement's 'Catch the Young' campaign being implemented through the Mawuleme Eco Brigade.

He noted that the Ghana Education Service (GES) had approved the piloting of sanitation clubs in 13 schools and one additional educational institution in Ho to promote proper waste management practices among pupils and students. The initiative would include the provision of two waste bins to each participating school to encourage waste segregation at source. Organic waste collected would be processed into compost for use on school farms, while recyclable inorganic waste would be properly managed and disposed of.

Mr. Amevi further revealed that the EPA had pledged to provide waste bins to five schools to support environmental education and sanitation programs. The Movement was also preparing to support the 'Clean Asogli During Te Za' campaign by providing 30 flowerpots along pedestrian walkways and advocating the placement of waste bins on major streets to discourage littering during the festival. Mr. Amevi assured that the Movement would take responsibility for regularly emptying the bins and ensuring the proper disposal of collected waste.

He appealed to residents, businesses, and other stakeholders to support the initiative and contribute to the vision of making Ho a cleaner, greener, and more attractive city. He reaffirmed the Movement's commitment to promoting environmental sustainability and fostering civic responsibility through volunteerism and community participation.
