Hon. Kalamu Musah Adamu, the Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) of Ablekuma North Constituency, has expressed dissatisfaction at the low patronage by residents and shop owners on National Sanitation.

On Saturday, November 7, 2026, the Ablekuma North Assembly, together with other volunteers, took to the street of Darkuman, Kokompe, for a clean-up exercise.

The MCE, speaking to Max TV, said though shop owners had respected the known directive to close their shops till 12 noon, they failed to actively participate in the exercise.

“So far most of the shop owners are cooperating, but what we have noticed is that, yes, they have closed their shops, but we are not seeing their numbers actively taking part.”

Hon. Adamu noted the assembly will work on how to get residents and shop owners getting involved in the exercise.

He further added that over 200 procured and distributed dustbins for residents in Kokompe are not being used to help clean the environment.
