Enugu set to become the cleanest city in Nigeria

The coordinator and chief executive officer of the Enugu Clean Team Project, ECTP, Rev. Fr. Michael Ogbu, says the organization has placed apparatus in motion to guarantee that Enugu turns into the cleanest city in the country within the shortest conceivable time.

Addressing journalists on the activities of the body, Fr. Ogbu, revealed that apart from the procurement of new equipment to cover Enugu, Nsukka, 9th Mile Corner, Awgu and Oji River Local Government, the recent employment of extra 1000 staff, in addition, would upgrade their operational limit.

According to him, ‘‘I trust the governor and the state executive council are inspired by our performance. And as a result, that’s the reason we were benevolently conceded solicitation to expand our staff strength with one thousand’’.

Describing the idea of the Enugu Clean Team Project as a great innovation and brainchild of the state governor, Chief Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, Rev. Fr. Michael Ogbu, therefore re-affirmed his responsibility to meet the order given to him by the governor to make Enugu the cleanest city in Nigeria, a dream come true.

He, however, appealed to motorists to drive gently. Especially in the early hours of the day, to avoid hurting his workers who are on duty. On the other hand, the Enugu Clean Team Project facilitator also advised residents of Enugu and other parts of the state to stop littering the streets with refuse, pure water sachets, and other particles so as to make the streets look beautiful and drainage flowing freely.
