An Accra court has sentenced two persons, Mr. Albert Okai and Mr. Amoako Darko to three months in prison with hard labour at the Nsawam Medium Security Prison for illegally dumping refuse at the Accra Post Office.

The duo were handed the sentence after failing to pay a fine of 50 penalty units amounting to GH¢600 for the crime. A third accused person, Mr. Michael Osei has also been remanded into custody for a week after pleading not guilty pending the next court sitting.

The conviction, according to the Accra Mayor, Hon. Micheal Kpakpo Allotey, forms part of stringent efforts being pursued by the AMA to ensure a cleaner city.
