\n

Thirty persons have been arraigned before the Tamale Magistrate Court presided over by His Worship Amadu Issifu, for various sanitation offenses.<\/p>\n

The court granted GH\u00a2 2,000 bail with one surety each to all the accused persons.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the accused persons pleaded not guilty to the charges in court.<\/p>\n

They are expected to reappear in court on 20th September, 2019.<\/p>\n

The judge however ordered the prosecutors to ensure that they have evidence that suggest the accused persons do not have toilets in their various homes.<\/p>\n

He warned that he would not hesitate to jail any of the accused persons should they be found guilty.<\/p>\n

The magistrate judge lamented how Ghanaians were consciously derailing the efforts of government and other organization in fighting the menace of open dedication.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe black man is like a Tortoise who must be heated to bring him out of his shells,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

In Ghana, statistics show only 21 percent of Ghanaians have access to improved household latrines where as the remaining 79 percent defecate in the open.<\/p>\n
