\"KempesThe Tema Metropolitan Assembly (TMA) has decided to fine 50 residents GHC 50 for failing to partake in a clean-up exercise instead of dragging them to court.<\/p>\n

Last weekend, the residents breached the by-laws of the TMA with their refusal to participate in a clean-up exercise after numerous announcements and sensitization by the Assembly.<\/p>\n

The TMA said not only did some of the residents not turn up; they also opened their shops when directives were given that nobody should do so until the exercise was done.<\/p>\n

Already more than 30 of the offenders have paid their fines and Public Relations Officer of the TMA, Mr. Frank Asante explained to Adom News that the assembly had decided to grant them the opportunity to pay the fine but stated that \u201cthey will not have that option next time because they will be dragged to court where they are likely to be fined higher amounts of money.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a related development, the TMA would be collaborating with the Tema Health Directorate and the media to conduct another clean up exercise at Tulaku in Ashaiman.<\/p>\n

Mr. Asante said as part of their efforts to keep Tema clean and stop the spread of cholera, the meat headquarters of Tema will be rid of filth towards the Easter holidays.<\/p>\n

\u201cMeasures have been put in place to ensure a sustained sanitation exercise to keep the municipality clean and also curb the spread of cholera.\u201d<\/p>\n

Already Tema East, West and Kpone Katamanso constituencies have had turns in the clean-up exercises.<\/p>\n
