The Kano State Government has warned industries operating in the state to ensure cleanliness in the communities where they operated.
The Commissioner for Environment, Dr Ali Makoda, gave the warning on Friday in Kano while monitoring the monthly environmental sanitation for Motor parks, markets and workplaces.
Makoda, represented by the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry, Alhaji Aliyu Garo, said many industries failed to consider the health of the people living in the communities they operated from.

Garo also commended the three industries visited by the state sanitation committee on Friday, for their “clean working environment.“
