Ghana's National General Cleaning Exercise Takes Off Today

The Government has declared this weekend as National General Cleaning Exercise Days in the seven regions affected by the recent floods.

From today, Friday, 10 July 2026, to Saturday, 11 July 2026, residents in these areas will take to the streets to clean up the mess left behind by the floods.

The initiative, under the auspices of the Post-Flood Mitigation Committee, aims to bring back some semblance of order to the affected communities.

The seven regions include the Brong Ahafo, Northern, Upper East, Upper West, Ashanti, Eastern, and Central regions, which were ravaged by the floods just a few weeks ago.

The government’s decision is seen as a crucial step in the recovery process, as residents struggle to come to terms with the destruction caused by the floods.

In a statement, the Government announced that the National General Cleaning Days will take place in the seven affected regions.

This exercise is expected to bring together residents, community leaders, and government officials to work together towards a common goal – to clean up the affected areas and restore normalcy to the communities.

The Post-Flood Mitigation Committee is working closely with local authorities to ensure a smooth and successful implementation of this exercise.

As residents in the affected regions take to the streets to clean up, many are expected to share their experiences and stories of survival.

The exercise is also seen as an opportunity for residents to come together and rebuild their communities. With the support of the government and local authorities, residents are hopeful that this exercise will mark a new beginning for the affected communities.

The success of this exercise will depend on the level of participation from residents and community leaders.

As the government and local authorities work together to clean up the affected areas, residents are expected to play a crucial role in the recovery process.

The outcome of this exercise will be a telling sign of the resilience and determination of the people in the affected regions.
