Matthew Mofe Edema, on Monday, March 1, 2025, carried out the evacuation of indiscriminately dumped waste along the Asaba/Benin Expressway, opposite FREDA EXPRESS Hotel, Agbor.
The exercise was supervised by Hon. Ndudi Cosmas Igbenije, Member representing Delta North in the Board, while the Agbor Field Office Supervisor, Kenneth Ezon Duwo, led the cleanup operation.
