THE garbage situation is not restricted to Georgetown, as residents in Bartica are now complaining that their community is slowly but more than surely becoming as stink as Georgetown.

Residents of the community of Bydaribo Road in Bartica have been very uneasy and furious at the regional authorities for not addressing their concerns and looking into the issue of the uncontrollable garbage situation in their community.
The residents told the media that the area has now become a dumpsite and is being managed by a private company. The situation has reached the point where it is now hazardous and uncontrollable.
At the centre of the discomfort for the residents is the fact that the dumpsite seems to be unmanageable for the persons who have been running it and as such the garbage is now making its way onto the roadways.
Reporters have been told that the residents have made several attempts and complaints about the smoke emanating from the dumpsite, but they have not been receiving any satisfaction.
