In solidarity with the Abia <\/a>State Government\u2019s ongoing environmental reforms, the Imo Youth Resident in Aba (IYORIA) has declared a special sanitation exercise to mark Abia\u2019s 34th anniversary.<\/p>\n The exercise, slated for Saturday, August 30, 2025, at 6:45 a.m., will mobilize Imo indigenes living and doing business in Aba to support the government\u2019s sanitation drive.<\/p>\n Speaking at a briefing, Mr. Alasaambara Jude-Panza, President-General of IYORIA, commended Governor Alex <\/a>Otti and the Abia <\/a>State Environmental Protection Agency (ASEPA) Aba Zone Chairman, Elder Okezie Ezengwa, for transforming Aba into a cleaner, healthier city.<\/p>\n \u201cHaving lived in Aba for over 40 years, I can confidently say this is a new Aba. The refuse heaps are gone, no more corpses on the roads, and drainage channels once blocked are now flowing freely,\u201d Jude-Panza noted.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Another member, Mr. Anozie Okoro from Mbano, Imo State, described Governor Otti\u2019s administration as inclusive and people-centered, adding that improved living and business conditions inspired their decision to support the initiative.<\/p>\n The sanitation exercise will take off from Ochiriozuo House, covering Ehi Road Junction, Asa Road, and Brass Street.<\/p>\n Organizers urged all Imo youths in Aba to participate actively, stressing that the effort is both an act of civic responsibility and a demonstration of their appreciation for good governance.<\/p>\nLike this:<\/h3>\n
