Hygiene and Sanitation: SW Clean City Contest Launched

The Chief Executive of the South West Region has rejoiced that his Region already holds a national title of the cleanest city. This was Limbe I that won the trophy in last year’s competition held in Douala. Governor Bernard Okalia Bilai was addressing the various authorities of the South West Region at the Buea Police road-junction recently where he exemplarily kicked off the exercise of tidying up all the towns and cities in the Region. He called on all to produce a clean city that will favourably compete at national level in one month and win back the title for the South West.

The Governor hinted that the city of Limbe in the South West Region of Cameroon will host the national competition this year within the context of World Habitat Day. As such, Okalia Bilai was mobilising the population within his territorial competence to clean drainages, roads, streets, and villages while making effort to beautify the environment. After a period of a month, the Regional committee will organize a local regional competition to project the cleanest municipality which will represent the South West during the national contest.
