Residents of Odoakpu in Onitsha South Local Government Area of Anambra on Sept. 26, participated in a community sanitation exercise sponsored by Hon. James Ibezimako Akpudo.
The exercise involved the clearing of accumulated refuse and other environmental waste from parts of the community.
Akpudo, the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) candidate for Onitsha South Constituency II in the 2027 Anambra State House of Assembly election, said the initiative was aimed at improving environmental sanitation and promoting public health.
