PNC PC Promises Door to Door Collection of Refuse
The Parliamentary Candidate for the People’s
National Convention (PNC) Cyril Spio Quansah, has
assured that as part of efforts in making the
Bantama Constituency one of the cleanest
constituencies in the Ashanti Region, he will
collect rubbish from house to house when he wins
the seat in December polls.

He promised to employ the services of energetic
young men and women who will go round with
purchased Mobile Tricycles locally called
‘Aboboyaa’ to collect rubbish on daily basis.

According to him, the filth that has engulfed
residents in the constituency will be a thing of
the past, as residents will not spot rubbish
scattered around Bantama and other suburbs.

Speaking to Lantam Papanko when the Ultimate
Breakfast Show team transmitted live from the
Bantama market, the parliamentary hopeful
envisaged that this will also create employment.

Quansah stated that fighting filth in Bantama will
not be an easy task but will curb the situation by
dredging gutters as often as he could.

He admitted that Zoomlion has been managing
sanitation, saying his door to door policy is
unprecedented.

‘We don’t really have problem with roads, we
just have to work on maintenance, but our gutters
are choked with filth, the heaped Ohwim refuse is
choking residents, the smell that emanates from
that refuse is an eyesore, residents have to lock
their rooms anytime they want to eat, residents
have been struck by death due to the filth, this
is a big problem, I will purchase tricycles
locally called ‘Aboboya’ with the Common Fund
that I will receive as an MP, I will distribute to
anyone who is interested in making Bantama clean,
we will brand the tricycles, we will go round to
people’s houses and collect the rubbish,’ he
assured.

He stated that he will wrestle the seat from the
opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP).

‘I did my own research of the area, lots of
things are bedeviling the constituency, Bantama
has been tagged as NPP stronghold, it’s true,
but it will not be easy for them this time
round.The youth are faced with lots of challenges
such as healthcare, education and unemployment, we
will tackle all these problems when I am voted,’
he said.

Quansah urged the electorate to vote massively for
him come December polls.
