According to him all over the World waste management is a Municipal function, and it should be the core duty of the MMDAs as waste management workers are available in every MMDA.

He further added that he has no idea on the contract signed by waste contractors and the question of their decentralization to make it effective. He believes it should fall under the Local Government Ministry and not the previous Sanitation Ministry set up by the immediate NPP administration.  

The presence of the Sanitation Ministry, he noted should be properly placed at the Ministry of the Local Government; “sanitation workers are present in every district; once this is done the problem will not be about contract, it will be about supervision  and monitoring.

H also affirmed that the Sanitation department of the ministry needs to be  strengthened  to do proper monitoring, adding that with effective  work on sanitation issues the problem can be solve, as it is not an issue of contract.
