Fetu Afahye gets a clean start with Ecozoil Ghana

As part of its comprehensive coastal sanitation programme, Ecozoil Ghana has successfully conducted a thorough clean-up of the Cape Coast Castle beach, also known as Abrofo Mpoano.
This initiative, which came off Friday, September 6, 2024, along the beaches of Cape Coast, not only aimed to maintain a clean beach environment but also contribute to the activities earmarked for the Fetu Afahye festival.
Additionally, Ecozoil Ghana utilised this opportunity to donate cartons of bottled mineral water, soft drinks, and exercise books to the Ogua Traditional Council in support of the Fetu Afahye festival celebrations.
The General Manager of Ecozoil Ghana, Madam Abitha Odame-Nyanteh, emphasised the company's dedication to preserving clean beaches as a vital component of their broader project.
She explained that this project encompasses various aspects, including beach cleaning, coast guard services, public education and awareness campaigns, and the training and deployment of lifeguards.
She highlighted Ecozoil Ghana's commitment to ensuring a clean beach environment during the festival and beyond: "We are here in Cape Coast to guarantee a clean beach for the duration of the festival and beyond. To achieve this, we have strategically placed waste bins and stationed workers to collect litter.
We urge everyone to refrain from littering and support our efforts in maintaining a serene environment," she noted.
Through this initiative, Ecozoil Ghana demonstrated its dedication to environmental stewardship and community engagement, aligning with the celebratory spirit of the Fetu Afahye festival.
The President of the Concerned Citizens of Cape Coast, Prophet Victor Quarm, commended Ecozoil for their dedication to the community.
"We are grateful to Ecozoil for their support in cleaning our beaches as part of the Fetu Afahye celebration,” he expressed.
According to him, the company's consistent efforts in maintaining a clean environment are truly appreciated.
"As concerned citizens, we will ensure that the environment remains clean during and after the festival," he assured.
Ms. Sarah, a brigadier with Ecozoil, shared some of the challenges her team faced while cleaning the beaches.
“Despite our efforts, we encountered instances of mockery from locals and continued littering.
It's disheartening to see our hard work undone so quickly.
Some individuals even continue to ease themselves along the shore, making our task more challenging.
At times, it's emotionally draining, but we remain committed to our mission of maintaining a clean environment," she lamented.
