Clogged water channel at Ghana

This water channel is found at Ghana street in Mwanza. It is clogged with garbage and has dirty wastewater. There is a woman nearby who sells fruits and vegetables. With the garbage and wastewater being so close to the food, there could be negative health effects to her customers. We interviewed the woman about how her customers react to the waste but she said that no one has ever complained. They are not concerned about the environment, only about purchasing her products.
