There is a brand new gear in waste management in Anambra State. Governor Charles Chukwuma Soludo’s well-articulated manifesto in turning Anambra State into a liveable and prosperous clean and green land has been given new pep and drive through the new directions in waste management put in place by the government.
The managing director and CEO of Anambra State Waste Management Agency (ASWAMA), Sir Mike Ozoemena, stresses without mincing words that open dumping of refuse is now anathema in Anambra State. Soludo leads the charge by insisting that the earlier impunity of keeping the environment dirty is fizzling out for good. According to Ozoemena, “Everywhere in the world, the municipal councils are faced with dealing with waste management and refuse disposal.”
