PRESS RELEASE
The 25th Anambra State Executive Council (ANSEC) Meeting, which took place at the Lighthouse, Awka, on December 15, 2025, made several important decisions; among them are:
Noted Erosion As Still Anambra’s Existential Threat
ANSEC once again emphasised that erosion is an existential issue in Anambra State, citing the careless actions of communities and regulatory bodies that have disregarded environmental regulations. For instance, some residents direct stormwater from their homes onto the roads, where it accumulates in different ways and contributes to the erosion crisis currently affecting Anambra State. ANSEC decided to step up enforcement to force people to build and manage storm waters from their houses and for communities to follow specific guidelines, like building erosion barriers and excavating sand only in locations that have been allowed.
Committee For Recovery Of Government Lands Currently Underway
After hearing another report about people blatantly intruding on government lands and building on them without permission, the council resolved to form a committee to reclaim these government lands in and around Anambra State.
