‘PH Residents Now Bag Waste’
Apparently receptive
to the spontaneous campaign by the Rivers State Environmental Sanitation Authority (RSESA) as to the need of bagging waste, investigations by The Tide indicate that most residents have keyed into the practice.
At Choba / Mbuogba road most of the residents bag their waste and place on the platform at the centre of the road, which make for easy evacuation by refuse disposal companies.
For Mrs Ethel Amadi, a house wife, she preferred bagging her waste because it makes it easier for her to take to the appropriate receptacle point. She explained that those who evacuate waste are human beings and should be accorded all amount of respect.
At Rumuola axis of the city, the story was the same as bagged refuse lined the ever busy road.
For John Chikere a fashion designer along the Rumuola road, bagging of waste was a welcome development because it keeps the debris he said.
