The deplorable sanitation situation in the capital city and across the country is such a crisis that President John Mahama must start leading the way in cleaning the drains, political Activist Dr Sekou Nkrumah has suggested. He told XYZ Breakfast Show host Moro Awudu that: �The filth that has engulfed us is a crisis.� �The President should step out from that Flagstaff house and start cleaning our dirty gutters and we�ll follow,� he proposed. According to him, it is important the President leads by example. �He should start. He should show the way and we�ll all do it. It is a crisis in Ghana,� Dr Nkrumah stressed. The son of Ghana�s first President said he was not asking for a symbolic move by the President in cleaning the filth but rather a pragmatic move that would demonstrate that he is ready to lead by example. �It�s a simple way. The President can start that initiative and say that he wants every Ghanaian to dedicate the weekend to cleaning houses.�
