Some over 50 packets of cigarettes being sold at some public toilets in Accra, posing threats to the facilities they were found at, have been confiscated by the Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA). Head of the Public Health Department, Florence Kuukyi, who led the team explained that "smoking in the public toilet can lead to explosion since a piece of the live cigarettes can mistakenly fall into the drop hole which is full of gases," a statement said. She cautioned patrons of public toilets to desist from smoking in the facility to avoid any disaster.
