The Special Adviser to the Governor on Special Duties Nze Chinasa Nwaneri who also doubles as the Chairman Task force desilting committee, is leading the task force team in collaboration with the ministry of Environment and the the Imo State Environmental Transformation Commission (ENTRACO), who are not only desilting but removing illegal structures that blocked waterways.
