POST-SANITATION EXERCISE: AKSEPWMA Boss Reacts At Residents’ Negative Attitude Towards Waste Handling
It was appalling to realise that despite concerted eforts and bouts of sensitisation dispensed on the masses against dumping of refuse in drainages, some residents have continued in perpetuating the menace in our clime.
The chairman of the agency – Obong Prince Ikim on Sunday, during the ongoing October edition of the monthly post Sanitation Exercise, frowned at a sight of such a negative attitude to waste handling and disposal, at Abak road by NCCF.
The negative attitude of dumping waste in the gutters has continued to ravage the environment and act as set back on the efforts of the Akwa Ibom State Government in protecting the environment and getting the state rid of flooding.
While the state government remains undaunted in battling flood and sundry environmental challenges, Ikim has urged residents to desist from the act.
