Katoto secondary school students moves to clean mzuzu city town on Friday 1st March 2019 aiming to maintain sanitation.
Speaking in an interview with the patron for Katoto Secondary School sanitation Agnes Gondwe Said keeping the town clean is one way of preventing diseases that spread due to improper hygiene.
“Our city is not giving a picture that the city council is taking an action to make it clean, despite it is good to take action so that we may show the example to bring sanitation in Mzuzu city”
She added that everyone should be responsible to bring about sanitation in Mzuzu because it takes someone to take an action in order to prevent diseases.
Commenting on the issue the sanitation prefect for katoto secondary sanitation club Paul Nyirenda has thanked his fellow students for being responsible for their town as they wait to bring a change in Mzuzu city.
According to the chairperson for Mzuzu main Market Peter Majawa said there is really a big challenge when it comes to sanitation in Mzuzu Market which comes due to careless littering and when rain comes it splashes away with water hence the town is not in good shape.
“We also have people who are cooking and selling food such as nsima, rice, bananas and corns when they wash their staffs they just throw anyhow. As a result we see rubbish scattering everywhere.
