The Chief Executive Officer of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Henry Kwabena Kokofu has cautioned Ghanaians against any form of environmental pollution.
Henry Kokofu, speaking on Peace FM's "Kokrokoo" show, bemoaned the noise pollution and other practices that destroy the environment.
He charged the citizenry to cooperate with the EPA by doing the right thing.
The EPA boss, in advising the citizens not to pollute the environment, tackled some issues before his office regarding some companies operating at unauthorized areas or without permit and people building houses on the Aburi mountains as well as other hilly areas among other environmental transgressions.
He warned that these practices pose a serious threat to the society and called on the persons involved to stop it or consult with the EPA to find out about whether or not where they are erecting their structures is permissible by law and the agency.
"Let us put our hands together and solve all these environmental infractions", he advised.

Dear Dr. KOKOFU, Our current president once said: " I will put my presidency on the line for galamsey fight". Now my question to you: Will you put jour CEO position on the line for the fight of noise pollution, air-water pollution? Or your words are just as shallow as the words of our president?
I thank Chief Executive Officer of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Henry Kwabena Kokofu, for the invitation to join hands with the EPA to fight noise pollution and other forms of environmental pollution. Please help me draw the CEO and EPA’s attention to GOLD COAST RESTAURANT & COCTAIL BAR AT CANTONMENTS IN THE LA DADEKOTOPON MUNICIPALITY, a business subjecting its neighbours to unreasonable noise pollution. Noise kills. Please enforce their compliance to Ghana’s laws on noise pollution. Thank you 🙏🏾
