The Tamale Metropolitan Assembly is to impound stray animals
found roaming on the streets of the Metropolis and imposes heavy fines on their
owners to bring sanity on the roads. The Assembly had observed that stray
animals were responsible for some of the accidents in the Metropolis and also
cause nuisance on the streets. Owners of such stray animals are also to face
prosecution. Mr. Samuel Salam Laar, Tamale Metropolitan Environmental Health
Office made this during an interaction with Fiila News.
Stray animals have for the past decades invaded the Tamale
Metropolis resulting in a struggle of both animals and commuters for access to
the principal
streets of the city. City authorities seem to have lost control as the stray animals,
notably cattle and sheep as well as goats parade the Central Business
District where brisk businesses operate. On sanitation, Mr. Samuel Laar blamed
the situation on lack of logistic incapacitating officers to effectively
monitor sanitation issues in the metropolis.Tamale Metropolis has
now become a lawless city with human beings and animals presenting unimaginable
scenes on a daily basis.
