By Cyprian Ebele, Onitsha

The Anambra Elders Forum (AEF), on Sunday, tasked governor Charles Chukwuma Soludo to order for the repainting of buildings, especially those located in urban and semi urban areas as part of the environmental cleanliness in the state

The group, added that the repainting would also result in aesthetic beauty for our urban cities and enhance socio-economic development of the State.

In a statement signed by the Director of Information, AEF, Chief Uzoma Anunihu, said the repainting and renovation should take effect from August 2024 and ends in December 2024, if government wants, stating that it would give Anambra a befitting look during this year’s yuletide.

The group revealed that some states in the county have gone ahead to implement the policy, saying that Anambra would have joined the League of Environmentally Clean States if it implemented the program.

According to them it would also create job opportunities for artisans in the State who would be involved in painting and mason works.

AEF said if Governor Soludo carried out the program in addition to the current strategic decongestion of roads in the State, he would have succeeded in turning Anambra into the most beautiful State in the country.
