A couple of years ago, Rivers State was no longer considered to be a clean state, especially Port Harcourt city, due to the indiscriminate disposal of waste by its residents.

This has changed the narrative of the city, from ‘Garden City to Garbage City.’

Here are some mixed reactions from the residents below.

Blessing Joseph – “Rivers State is not there yet. Plenty of work still needs to be done in terms of waste management. Please set up a committee that will arrest those littering the state. Let’s adopt the Calabar method.”

Vera Frederick – “The residents of River State are so stubborn and not law abiding; come to Calabar, and everyone adopts new laws.”

Engr Chim – “Where is the new look now?
This place looked the same since my secondary days in the late nineties till now; maybe the streetlights came like 5 or 8 years ago, but the pavements remained the same.
They probably only swept the road and said it’s a new look……. Rivers state people, self.

Joshua Chinaza Abel – “RIWAMA Front Desk, please, you people should look into the Eleme/oil mill daily market. That market is a mess. The daily traders have messed up that road with unkept trading environments. Eleme local government chairman and team should wake up to their responsibility, please.”

From the responses of the residents, it is clear there is improvement in cleanliness in the state, while some are still not satisfied and wants RIWAMA to do more.
