As part of efforts to intensify sanitation in his jurisdiction, the paramount chief of the Dorma Traditional Council, Osagyefuo Oseadeeyo Agyeman Badu II has procured a state-of-the-art refuse truck.

Sanitation is a major issue in Ghana and the Dormaahene, who doubles as president of the Bono Regional House of Chiefs, is taking bold steps to make his land the cleanest place in the country.

In a video sighted by YEN.com.gh on TikTok, the new refuse truck was seen at the palace of the paramount chief.

The truck, as spotted in the video, looked like the Dongfeng Shacman Homo Jac 7000, which is fitted with advanced waste management technology.

It is not known how much the Dormaahene paid for the refuse truck, but the supposed model costs between $18,900.00 (GH¢301,445.55) to $25,800.00 (GH¢411,497.10).

If used effectively and efficiently, the refused truck acquired by Oseadeeyo Agyeman Badu II could help to enhance waste collection and disposal in the entire Bono land.
