Mr. Joshua Nii Bortey, the Municipal Chief Executive for Krowor Municipal Assembly led the delegation of the exercise.

Speaking with Ghanadistricts.com, the MCE stated that the Rotary Club International, Spintex Branch and some other branches across the country supported the Guinness Ghana, other partners’ sponsors to clean and plant the coconut seedlings.

According to him, the restoration efforts were organized as part of ‘Green Ghana Day’ – a day dedicated to raising awareness about the environment and undertaking meaningful initiatives and this will also help take inspiring steps to restore the beauty of Nungua Regional Maritime University Beach.

Mr. Nii Bortey expressed support for environmental activities and highlighted a bye-law that requires property developers to reserve 25 percent of their land for landscaping purposes, including for planting trees and grass.

This, he said, demonstrates the local government’s recognition of environmental conservation’s importance.
