Motorists plying the federal highway in Zuba, Abuja, have received relief following the evacuation of a refuse heap that had occupied part of the road and contributed to traffic gridlock. A contractor engaged by the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) carried out the evacuation. Abolarin Olorunleke, a staff member of the Satellite Towns Development Department (STDD), said the exercise began a day earlier and was expected to be completed yesterday. He added that the evacuation would henceforth be carried out for two days at the end of every month as part of a two-year contract awarded by FCT Minister Nyesom Wike for sanitation activities across the six area councils.
