NTUNGAMO – Authorities and residents of Rubaare Town Council are concerned of over open dumping of foetuses at the stages of prenatal development from undistinguished places that are causing stench fuming in the area.
According to Town Clerk Rubaare Town Council Mr Emmanuel Byamukama, it is a public concern they will enforce their operations to fight the habit adding that they recently fought against clinic operators littering the town with blunt objects including, needles, scissors, cutters among others. He revealed that the suspects utilise the night chance to litter the environment in the absence of enforcing operations.
The health Inspector Rubaare Town Council Mr Robert Muhirwe re-echoed the importance of enforcing operations to bar the culprits from the act. He noted that at Rubaare health centre IV facility, with miscarriage and placenta issues, they are incinerated in the placenta pit but warned clinic operators and self aborting individuals against open dumping of foetuses.
According to LC I Chairperson Rubaare Cell II Mr Milton Ndeebesa who also doubles as chairperson of all LCs in Rubaare Town Council it is true they are facing challenge of stench smell which is mostly caused by open dumping of foetuses after miscarriage and abortion thus calling upon the concerned authorities to take serious action over such a burning issue, stressing that the situation of the stench smell is disturbing people mostly on the way, in hotels , in luxury places among others.
