KMC Fulfils Promise to Collect Refuse
By Yaya Dampha
Days after the last monthly cleaning exercise, commonly known as set-setal, a lot of uncollected refuse, dumped indiscriminately along the highway and behind the Tallinding market, was not collected.
This reporter took photographs of all these uncollected refuse dumps and proceeded to the KMC cleaning services where he met one Mr. Kemo Conteh, a senior supervisor at the Cleaning Service. When Mr. Conteh was shown the pictures he explained that the lack of vehicles and fuel were responsible for the delay in the waste collection exercise. He said the Cleansing Service is making every effort to address the situation.
Soon after the Foroyaa publication of the story captioned "Uncollected Refuse in KMC" the council proceeded to collect the refuse along the highway and also the ones behind the Talinding Market.
Mr. Conteh called our reporter and informed him that the refuse was collected. He further promised that they would make sure that such problems do not occur again. He said the KMC is for the people and that they would make all efforts to satisfy the people. Mr. Conteh called on the people not to dump their refuse during the cleaning exercise near public places and business centres.
