Cleanliness takes priority in urban renewal agenda
The Head of State underscored the critical importance of public hygiene, emphasizing that a world-class capital must uphold impeccable sanitation standards. Strict directives were issued to expedite urban cleanliness measures, covering waste collection, transportation, treatment, and recycling. These efforts are geared toward delivering a healthier environment for all residents.
By urging Mayor Eugène Mba to prioritize rigor, creativity, and efficiency, President Brice Clotaire Oligui Nguema reaffirmed his commitment to positioning local authorities as key drivers of national progress, with citizen welfare at the heart of public policy.
