The Minister of State for Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Dr. Ramatu Tijjani Aliyu, has frowned at indiscriminate dumping of refuse and the littering of streets, roads and waterways with garbage in the nation’s capital.
Dr. Aliyu spoke at a one-day training organised by a Non Governmental Organisation, NGO, Initiative for Advancement of Waste Management in Africa (WASTE Africa) or litter pickers in Abuja recently.
She noted that the FCT was faced with the challenges of waste management owing to frequency of household waste collections and the limited collection coverage.
