Clean Monrovia Day

Saturday was clean Monrovia day. The President issued a proclamation the other day (I'm not sure how the news spreads, but it does, and everybody seems to know). The first Saturday of every month is to be 'Monrovia Clean-Up Day'; similar to what's done in Sierra Leone and elsewhere. Businesses were shut from 6am-10am, and everyone was told to participate in the clean up. And it happened - businesses were shut, and piles of garbage amassed (casualties of the clean up day as someone joked) on the side of the streets.
