The World Bank is funding the construction of fifty-eight latrines
with hand washing facilities for selected schools in the Effutu
Municipality. The project, which is being executed through the
International Development Authority’s Sustainable Rural Water and
Sanitation Project, is valued at GH¢ 287,548 and it is expected to be
completed within six months.
Speaking at handing over ceremonies at separate construction sites, Mr Henry Franklin Asangsah, Central Regional Chief Water and Sanitation Engineer, said the project is designed to help address sanitation concerns in schools. He said sixteen districts including the Effutu Municipality are beneficiaries of the programme in the Central Region and commended the municipal authorities for being the first to commence work. Mr Asangsah also urged the relevant authorities of the Assembly to pay regular visits the sites to see the progress of work being done.

He appealed to the management of the beneficiary schools to remain patient as work progresses on the project and urged them to provide the needed assistance to facilitate the work of the contractors.
