FCC fights environmental pollution

Some people continue with indiscriminate waste dumping even though there are existing laws that forbid littering and dumping which leave the city filthy. Following the FCC clean-up campaign launch, Mmegi spoke to the chief environmental health officer on their plans to keep the city tidy.

In an interview, Mopako said hey have deployed council workers on the ground from their waste management department to solely guard the identified illegal dumping sites. He indicated that they have so far identified 15 illegal dumping sites which include Francistown Sports Complex, Kgaphamadi, Goldmine Junior Secondary School and Selepa along the old Matsiloje road.
