The Deputy Governor of Anambra State, Dr Onyekachukwu Ibezim has directed market leaders across the State to embrace government initiatives towards ensuring sustained cleanliness in various Markets.
The Deputy Governor who is the Chairman Clean, Green and Sustainable Anambra Executive Committee gave the directive during a meeting with Market Leaders across the State at the Government House, Awka.
The Deputy Governor who expressed dissatisfaction with the indifferent attitude towards the environment by traders in the State who use wastes generated from their daily activities in the Markets to block waterways and other illegal dump sites, said that such attitude will no longer be tolerated by the present administration as it militates against the clean, green, sustained and prosperous Anambra target.
Dr Ibezim asked the Market leaders to make laws to sustain culture of cleanliness in their various Markets after the inauguration of clean, green and sustainable Anambra project this weekend, as government will not take it lightly with any Market leader that fails to partner it in the actualization of the target of being the most cleaned state.
