In the Upper Denkyira East Constituency, one leader stands out for his unwavering commitment to improving sanitation and fostering a cleaner, healthier environment: Honorable George Anane Coleman, the Municipal Chief Executive (MCE). Since assuming office, he has demonstrated an extraordinary dedication to tackling sanitation challenges, setting an inspiring example for both his colleagues and the community.

From his very first day in office, Hon. George Anane Coleman made a powerful statement about his priorities. Instead of a traditional ceremonial inauguration, he rolled up his sleeves and joined a cleanup exercise in Dunkwa Township. This symbolic act sent a clear message—his administration would prioritize hands-on solutions to sanitation issues. His proactive approach has since motivated residents, local businesses, and sanitation workers to take collective action in keeping the municipality clean.

Recognizing that poor sanitation contributes to health risks, environmental degradation, and a negative public image, Hon. Coleman has outlined a comprehensive strategy to address these challenges. His key initiatives include:

  1. Regular Clean-Up Campaigns – Under his leadership, the assembly has institutionalized monthly clean-up exercises across communities, ensuring sustained participation from citizens and local organizations.
  2. Waste Management Infrastructure – Plans are underway to improve waste collection systems, including the provision of more waste bins .
  3. Public Education & Enforcement – The MCE emphasizes the importance of behavioral change through public sensitization on proper waste disposal. Additionally, stricter enforcement of sanitation bylaws will deter littering and illegal dumping.
  4. Partnerships for Sustainable Solutions – Hon. Coleman is aiming at engaging NGOs, private sector players, and traditional leaders to support waste management projects, including composting and plastic waste recycling programs.

Hon. George Anane Coleman understands that government efforts alone cannot solve sanitation challenges. He consistently calls on residents to take ownership of their environment by maintaining clean surroundings and reporting sanitation offenders. His leadership style—rooted in transparency, accountability, and community engagement—has already begun yielding positive results.

The Honorable George Anane Coleman’s ambition to transform Upper Denkyira East into a model of cleanliness and environmental sustainability is both commendable and achievable. By leading from the front and implementing practical solutions, he is setting a new standard for municipal governance. With continued support from the people, his vision of a cleaner, healthier constituency will undoubtedly become a reality.

As Upper Denkyira East marches toward a brighter, more sustainable future, one thing is clear: under Hon. Coleman’s leadership, sanitation is no longer just a policy—it’s a collective mission.
