The Warri South council on Monday frowned at the indiscriminate dumping of refuse by residents living the area.
The Supervisor for Environment, Warri South Council, Mr. Omawumi Elete, who spoke to newsmen in Warri during a cleaning exercise around the NPA Expressway and Ugbuwangue market, lamented the way and manner residents and traders in the council area throw away refuse recklessly.
He warned that the council will not hesitate to use force backed by law to ensure that the people dispose their waste properly.
According to Elete, “The way and manner indigent and traders around the Ugbuwangue Market axis dispose their waste calls for concern.
“A Holistic approach would be deployed to tackle this using the required force as it has become obvious that the traders must be compelled to dispose their refuse properly.
“Environment is everybody’s business and We all must play our part to make Warri Clean.”
