Martin Obeng<\/strong> <\/p>\n

The Sunyani West District Chief Executive, Martin Obeng, has announced an unusual
\n\u2018shoot-on-sight\u2019 order of animals found roaming the streets of his
\njurisdiction. <\/p>\n

Making the announcement during a
\nmeet-the-press activity in the district, he painted a worrying picture of the
\ndanger posed by the stray animals, but was quick to add that owners of such
\nanimals would first be educated on the need to restrict their livestock.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will shoot and kill all domestic
\nanimals that roam the towns in the district but we shall first educate the
\npeople to take care of their animals,\u201d he said in an answer to a question posed
\nby one of the journalists at the media encounter jointly organised by the Sunyani
\nMunicipal Assembly and the Sunyani West District in the regional capital.<\/p>\n

He said cattle, sheep, goats and
\neven dogs would be shot on sight because they pose a threat to the communities
\nin which they roam.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll animal owners are supposed to
\nkeep their animals in an enclosed area,\u201d the DCE stressed as he dangled his
\nachievement of getting rid of cattle owners and their livestock from the
\ndistrict since assuming office. <\/p>\n

He added that owners of animals shot
\nto death would be punished too.<\/p>\n

On the subject of sanitation, the
\nDCE said the assembly had supplied 320 litter bins to various communities in
\nthe district as refuse receptacles.<\/p>\n

As part of government\u2019s agreement
\nwith Zoomlion Company Limited, the waste company is expected to supply waste
\ncontainers to the Sunyani West District Assembly to improve sanitation.<\/p>\n

Regarding the recent case of fertilizer theft during which the district director of agriculture, storekeeper and a \u2018Planting for Food and Jobs\u2019 desk officer were locked up after being implicated by an audit, he said a final report on the subject was yet to be presented.\u00a0 He gave an assurance that those implicated would be prosecuted.<\/p>\n
