An Ibadan based Non Governmental Organization (NGO), Save The Environment, has embarked on environmental sanitation exercise across major areas in the state capital.
This initiative, Busari Ibrahim Olayode, Project Coordinator at Save The Environment, told InsideOyo.com that is to make sure the environment is clean, safe and healthy to live.
“We find a dirty location in the community and clean it, disposing the trash appropriately.
We did it again! Yass!! The thrash were carelessly disposed after use and we took up the challenge of making things right!

“Our vision is having a safe, healthy, pollution free environment. As global environmental issues due to industrialization and human activities are growing more seriously, there’s an urgent need for us to resolve them by protecting the environment in many ways in which picking and appropriate disposal of trash is one,” Olayode told InsideOyo.com.

To Obtain 100,000 plastic bottles for building of classrooms in Akinyele Local Government
The NGO said it is partnering with Bramble, an organisation aimed at reuse of waste to gather 100,000 plastic waste and build classrooms in Akinyele Local Government.
“The initiative believes that appropriate disposal of trash addresses the environmental issues of the world especially in preventing further global warming and reversing the effects of global warming,” the project coordinator stated further.
