The Monrovia City Corporation recently conducted its routine First Saturday Cleanup Exercise, with Mayor John Charuk S. Siafa leading the initiative. The event aimed to increase awareness about the importance of cleanliness in the city and encourage public engagement in keeping Monrovia clean and green.
On the First Saturday of every month, citizens are encouraged to stay home and clean their own living spaces, while the Monrovia City Corporation employees work alongside the Mayor to clean the streets. This collaborative effort ensures that both individual households and public spaces are maintained and kept free from waste and debris.
During the recent cleanup exercise, employees of the Monrovia City Corporation were actively involved in clearing waste from the city streets. This hands-on approach not only helped in keeping the streets clean but also served as a means of educating the public about the negative impact of littering and the significance of maintaining a clean and safe environment in Monrovia.
One of the objectives of the First Saturday Cleanup event was to raise awareness about the upcoming operation of the Intergovernmental Agency Cleanup Taskforce. This taskforce will play a crucial role in making key decisions regarding effective city management and waste disposal practices in Monrovia.
The participation of Monrovia locals and individuals from neighboring areas in the cleanup exercise demonstrates a shared commitment towards long-term waste management in the city. By working together to keep the streets clean, residents contribute to a healthier and more sustainable living environment for all.
Mayor John Charuk S. Siafa has called upon the residents of Monrovia to wholeheartedly support the First Saturday cleanup initiative.

Through these regular cleanup exercises and awareness campaigns, the Monrovia City Corporation aims to instill a culture of cleanliness and environmental consciousness among the city’s inhabitants. By actively participating in these initiatives, individuals can take ownership of their surroundings and contribute to the overall well-being of the community.
In conclusion, the First Saturday Cleanup Exercise organized by the Monrovia City Corporation, under the leadership of Mayor John Charuk S.
