In a bid to promote a clean and healthy environment, the Edo State government has approved the reintroduction of the monthly environmental sanitation.

Gov. Monday Okpebholo who made this known on Tuesday in Benin, said that the renewed initiative would take place on the last Saturday of every month, from 7.00 a.m. to 10.00 a.m., beginning on April 26, 2025.

According to Okpebholo, this becomes imperative to reflect the administration’s commitment to promoting a cleaner and healthier environment for all Edo residents, through active community participation.

“During the exercise, all human and vehicular movements will be restricted, except for those on essential duties, to ensure full compliance across the state,” Ikhilor said.

He urged all residents to support the initiative by participating fully and keeping their surroundings clean and hygienic during the designated period.

Gov. Monday Okpebholo’ message was delivered by the Secretary to the State Government, Umar Ikhilor.(NAN)
