The Kano State Commissioner for Environment and Climate Change Rt Hon. Nasiru Sule Garo urged people in the state to be conscious of their immediate environment especially during the Sallah festivities where people slaughter their animals for sacrifice, hence the need to ensure proper handling of the animals waste to avoid polluting the environment.
Garo made this known through the Director Public Enlightenment of the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Malan Ismail Garba Gwammaja.
The Commissioner further explained that the call became imperative in view of the fact that, some people committed indiscriminate slaughter and dumping animal waste anywhere sometimes through waterways and eventually May cause flooding especially now that we're at the raining season period, he pointed out.
He therefore advised people instead of dumping the animal waste anywhere or at the waterways which may cause nuisance, they should dig a hole and buried all unwanted raminent for safe landing.
The Commissioner also enjoined those engaged in using tyres for drying animal skin or any part of the animal to desist because of the environmental and health hazard, in place of this they should use charcoal or fire wood for the time being.
Meanwhile he used the occasion to congratulate Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf, Deputy Governor Comrade Aminu Abdulsalam Gwarzo, Speaker Kano State House of Assembly Hon. Ismail Falgoreg and other members, Emir of Kano Muhammadu Sanusi II and all Muslims ummah a hitch free sallah celebration.
