“We have been working very hard to keep Uvwie clean and we have recorded huge success as many illegal dump sites have been cleared. All hands must be on deck to make Uvwie clean. We should not wait for Government to read out the riot act before we keep our environment clean,” Comrade Adjekuko said.

We are not going to tolerate illegal dumping of waste. We must come together and keep our environment clean. All hands must be on deck to clean Uvwie Local Government Area. Let us say NO to illegal dumping of refuse and our people should patronise PSP.

We pray that things should work out for us to complete and sustain the project because it is our determination to make Uvwie Local Government Area clean”

Am using this medium to appeal for support from major companies along the Expressway and the State Government in order for us to sustain the Smart Green Environment. Am proud to say that our PSP is different from other PSPs and I am enjoying what I am doing to keep our environment clean. I have passion for the job, without passion, you cannot carry on with the job successfully,” he posited
