"We must make sure we keep this market clean; Governor Otti has made cleanliness a priority in Abia State and we can not be left behind. This is a market where chicken is processed and we must not allow people to get contaminated here or eat contaminated food"

"Waste disposal is also very important, waste must not be dumped indiscriminately", Ure Abazie advises.
