In a report seen by the {African Press Agency} on Sunday expresses concern over “increasing waste discharges into public streetsâ€� which is against the country’s anti-littering law. Nobody has ever been prosecuted in The Gambia for flouting existing laws on littering and other forms of environmental pollution. The report says waste water discharged on public streets had the highest number of registered cases since 2013, followed by solid waste deposition. It also indicated that pollution of the environment especially from activities that generate noise, and smoke has increased over the past few years.
