The sector minister, Cecilia Dapaah has noted that the Akufo-Addo government will for the first time have data on households with toilet facilities. This will help trace households without the facility after the 2021 Population Census. She stated that the upcoming population census will have questions under WASH and this will help with the database collection to ensure cleanliness and growth in the country as far as sanitation is concerned. The Sanitation Minister said, “We have an input in the questionnaire in the 2021 Census and for the first time, we will have data on how many households have toilets and how households dispose off their solid and liquid waste. Though some of the bins have been bastardized, the sanitation minister said government will not up on the fight against sanitation, stressing that, they will keep inculcating good environmental attitudes in Ghanaians.
