The Abuja Environmental Protection Board (AEPB), has begun a citywide sanitation exercise after engaging 54 new solid waste-management contractors across the Federal Capital Territory.<\/p>\n
The initiative, officials said during an inspection tour, is part of the FCTA\u2019s renewed push to improve cleanliness and ensure more efficient waste evacuation.<\/p>\n
The contractors have been assigned to various districts with a mandate to clear accumulated refuse and strengthen routine waste collection.<\/p>\n
AEPB noted that the drive aligns with the FCTA\u2019s directive to curb recurring waste buildup and enforce higher environmental hygiene standards.<\/p>\n
Contractors are expected to meet strict performance benchmarks as the administration works to establish a more reliable waste-management system.<\/p>\n
Residents were urged to support the exercise by disposing of waste properly and avoiding indiscriminate dumping that blocks roads and drains.<\/p>\n
The operation will continue across designated districts in the coming days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
