 That’s Not Fair - Kim Kardashian Says Prisoners Who Fought L.A. Wildfires Were Paid 'Just a Few Dollars,' and She Wants to Change That A renewed push for prison labor reform is gaining attention, with Kim Kardashian stepping in to support new legislation aimed at changing how incarcerated workers are paid. The bill, reintroduced on March 19 by Cory Booker, seeks to ensure that people working while incarcerated receive at least the federal minimum wage. It also proposes limits on deductions for fees, fines, and living costs within correctional facilities, through amendments to the Fair Labor Standards Act.

 Factories, Companies and business operators in Awka will pay a fine of N300,00, if their environment is found dirty -Awka Capital Territory Development Authority (ACTDA)


The Awka Capital Territory Development Authority (ACTDA) has directed factories, companies and business operators within the capital territory to maintain a clean and safe environment around their premises or face sanctions.


The directive, issued by ACTDA Environmental Officer, Mr. Jude Nworah, on behalf of the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of the Authority, Dr. Ossy Onuko, stated that operators are required to regularly cut and clear grasses within and around their premises, provide waste bins and ensure proper refuse disposal.


ACTDA announced that its enforcement team will commence routine inspections from February 15, 2026, warning that defaulters will be sanctioned with a fine of N300,000 or face legal prosecution.


Nworah said the inspection exercise will cover factories, companies and other business premises across Awka to ensure compliance with environmental sanitation standards.


He noted that the directive became necessary following the poor environmental condition previously observed in parts of the capital city, including blocked drainage systems and unclean gutters.


According to him, several establishments had earlier been served notices to carry out clean up and desilting of drainages, stressing that the enforcement process would not be compromised.
