The Buz Stop Boys at a clean-up exercise
The Buz Stop Boys, a group of young volunteers in Ghana who clean public spaces and promote environmental care, have been honoured at the 2025 Berlin Carnival of Cultures.
The event, held from June 6 to June 9, 2025, saw the streets filled with music, dance, and vibrant traditional outfits. But the highlight was a float dedicated to the Buz Stop Boys, celebrating their hard work in keeping Ghana clean.
CEO of Ghana Carnival Berlin, Fatimah Adamu Suka, said the event showcased how the group is making a difference.
“They don’t wear capes; they carry brooms and trash bins. We wanted everyone to see the importance of their work,” she said.
The Carnival of Cultures brings together over 70 countries every year, and Ghana’s tribute to the Buz Stop Boys was a standout moment.
