His aim of making Ghana's main city, Accra, the cleanest city in the world isn't dead yet, as fresh steps are being proposed to make his vision a reality.
Henry Quartey has stated that before the conclusion of his tenure as Greater Accra Regional Minister, he will guarantee that Accra is clean.
He told NEAT FM's 'Ghana Montie' morning show that his new policy will be strict and punished if it is broken.
"If you trash about, you will face the authorities," he warned host Kwesi Aboagye.
Mr. Quarter was speaking about the introduction of sanitation law enforcement officers who have yet to be deployed following military training.
The first group of people, numbering a thousand (1,000), will guarantee that Accra is cleaned up.
