 Anambra Govt bans scavengers, vows to prosecute residents selling scraps to them


Anambra State Government has announced an immediate ban on the activities of scavengers who move about buying iron scraps, commonly referred to as “iron condemn”.


This decision follows the scavengers’ notorious activities, which have become a significant nuisance to society, involving the theft of metal objects from public utilities, private properties, and the vandalism of critical infrastructure.


According to a statement issued by the Commissioner for Information, Paul Nwosu, the scavengers’ actions have had a detrimental impact on the state’s economy and the country as a whole.


The government has warned that individuals caught engaging in business with these scavengers will be arrested and prosecuted for receiving stolen property.


To distinguish between illegal condemned iron scavengers and legitimate scrap metal dealers, the Ministry of Environment will register and certify the latter, allowing them to continue their business without hindrances.


The OCHA and SASA brigades have been tasked with enforcing the ban and apprehending any condemned iron scavengers found operating within the state.


Citizens are urged to report any activities of the scavengers to the authorities for prompt action.


This move is seen as a significant step towards maintaining law and order in the state and protecting public and private properties from theft and vandalism.
