Mr. Rawuf Sani, member of Darkuman \u2018Borla Taxi\u2019 Association, has expressed worry about the Accra Metropolitan Assembly\u2019s directive to members to halt their operations.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 It said the directive if implemented would create unemployment and affect the livelihood of the people.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0 Speaking to Ghana News Agency, Mr Rawuf said the creation of the Sanitation Ministry by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo\u2013Addo was laudable, saying the Ministry must come out with a clear policy to regulate the operations of \u2018Borla Taxis\u2019<\/p>\n
\u00a0He urged both AMA and the Sanitation Ministry to give prominence to their operations and ensure effective participation and contribution to the realisation of the President\u2019s initiative.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 He explained that AMA\u2019s new site at Kasoa and GHc40 charge per trip was exorbitant, adding that their tricycle couldn\u2019t climb the hill to offload the refuse compared to Mallam where they paid GH\u023c12 per trip.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0 Mr Rawuf indicated that the Association had currently employed 156 from Darkuman, 234 from Kaneshie and 160 from Ablekuma, totalling 550 youths within the three communities.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0 He added that the Association as part of its commitment rendered services to communities on National Sanitation Day without charging any amount of money.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0 Ms Catharine Oparebrea Asare, a Landlord at Santa Maria said the services of \u2018Borla Taxi\u2019 helped them to dispose of waste daily, thereby saving them from diseases like cholera and typhoid.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0 She also expressed excitement about their routine collection and most importantly the credit facility.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u201cBorla Taxi has been at the forefront of tackling filth menace. We have accepted it as a substance for almost every household. Government can\u2019t deal with this challenge alone,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 She, therefore, appealed to government to support the Association to operate effectively.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
