The landfill opened in 2013. It accomplished its goal of bringing in 700 tons of rubbish each day. After starting the procedure in 2016, it took four years for Kpone to reach its garbage capacity. As a result, efforts were made to convert the garbage site into a scene that is not an eyesore in society.
