He said the people should not rpt not look up to the District Assembly alone for refuse disposal but ensure that they carry refuse from their homes to refuse dumps. He was not happy about the indiscriminate dumping of refuse and urged the officials of the enviornmental health division to find a lasting solution to the problem.
