MUDA AFRICA PARTNERS WITH REESAFRICA TO ADVOCATE FOR ECO-FRIENDLY ACTIVITIES AND A SUSTAINABLE WASTE DISPOSAL CHANNEL IN DUTSE MARKET, ABUJA.


Like many organizations who have made the advocacy on climate change and #ClimateAction their everyday pursuit as they seek to ensure our planet is livable and conducive for all, MUDA Africa embarked on one of such historic paths to inform Abuja residents on the dangers of poor waste disposal and the threats it poses to our existence. 


The advocacy drive was initiated by ReesAfrica in collaboration with SustyVibe. It was also a great platform for MUDA Africa to show their love for mother earth and to also engage shop owners on the need to ensure proper disposal of waste while advising them on best practices.

The activity which was held on Saturday the 17th of August, 2019 saw participants take up sensitization and cleaning exercises around the ever-busy Dutse market in Abuja. Volunteers who were mainly youths in their 20s had to wait for over two hours for the rain to subside, before embarking on the eventful exercise, one which was worth every time spent.
The event also featured little pep talks by members of the various organizations present on what their engagements were about, and how they go about their aim to make our world a better place. 


After hours or cleaning gutters and packing heaps of waste gathered around the market, the outreach came to a close at about 12.00pm with great fulfillment from everyone that took part and a pledge to continue with the advocacy to rid our gutters and oceans of plastics. 

MUDA Africa would like to thank @reesafrica and @sustyvibes and other development agencies that have continued to work tirelessly to ensure the change in climate conditions do not catch us unawares, and furthermore to ensure that we mitigate against activities that threaten atmospheric conditions.

MUDA Africa pledges to continue with our advocacy as we also look forward to partnering with agencies and organizations on waste management and the provision of clean potable water through the deployment of our water filtration technology (ELXAR)

    Well done. Quick question, just as your goal is to help have a clean environment, where is your final channel of waste distribution knowing well the recent fight against plastics found in the ocean.

Effects of Water Pollution

Water is a fundamental human need. Most living things—humans and ecosystems—depend on the availability of clean water. Water is an amazing all-purpose element that is the foundation of our everyday life. From cooking to cleaning, and a variety of other things, but most importantly survival; water is a fundamental human need. Yet, millions of people in the world are living without access to safe water supply, and thousands die each year from a water-related disease. ‍ Polluted water isn’t just dirty—it’s deadly. Some 1.8 million people die every year of diarrheal diseases like cholera . Tens of millions of others are seriously sickened by a host of water-related ailments—many of which are easily preventable. The United Nations considers universal access to clean water a basic human right, and an essential step towards improving living standards worldwide. Freshwater sources around the world are threatened by water pollution. Not only are we managing our resources poorly thro

Everyone Deserves #CleanWater

Safe accessible water is essential for the health of every individual. In fact, it can be a matter of life and death. However, nearly one billion people do not have access to clean, safe water; and according to the World Health Organization (WHO), water scarcity affects 1 in 3 people in the African Region! Many who have easy access to clean water cannot fathom the mental and physical stress faced by those who do not. Have you ever tried going an entire day without clean water? Or walking over 30 minutes away from home to fetch clean water and then all the way back with a jerrycan weighing anything between 40 - 70 pounds? Now imagine doing this every day for 3 hours (or more) in a day, and then having to manage the water you retrieved with your entire family. It is not a life anyone hopes for but one that is experienced by millions. CLEAN WATER SAVES LIVES According to the UN, Sub-Saharan Africa alone loses 40 billion hours per year collecting water. Furthermore, women
