The Anambra state government has flagged off Operation Clean & Healthy Anambra, codenamed OCHA Brigade. At the flag off ceremony, Governor Obiano explained that the OCHA brigade was an Enforcement Unit with a mandate to facilitate improvement in our quality of life by enforcing environmental cleanliness, healthy living habits, good hygiene and general orderliness in the state. He says : “the mission of OCHA Brigade is to enforce cleanliness and orderliness as a culture among the residents of Anambra state; with the aim to become the task force most known for enforcing a clean, orderly and healthy environment in Nigeria. This initiative will be championed by 200 youths drafted from various ministries in the state who have been properly trained and equipped for this assignment.” OCHA Brigade is a merger of the Enforcement Units of the Ministries of Health, Environment, Board of Internal Revenue Services, ASUDEB/ ACDA, the advertisement agency and ASWAMA. It represents a new enforcement model with inter-ministerial and inter-agency relationships that present an opportunity for the state to efficiently and effectively enforce discipline, orderliness, cleanliness and an excellent tax payment structure. “ Obiano further described OCHA Brigade as a“laudable initiative that will foster a cleaner, healthier and more orderly Anambra; a culture worthy of an enterprising and dogged people; and an effective taskforce that will endear the government to the people.” southeastnigeria/operation-ocha-clean-and-healthy-anambra-takes-off/
