Calabar, a city that was once reckoned as one of the cleanest cities in Nigeria was turned into an eyesore on Tuesday after city sweepers in the Cross River State capital, numbering about100, yesterday, littered the front of the Governor’s Office, Calabar with garbage in protest over their four months unpaid salary by the Governor Ben Ayade led administration.
The angry sweepers allegedly poured debris from waste bins and other garbage from the First Gate, which is the main entrance used only by the governor to the Second Gate used by others.
The women, who protested in front of the Governor’s Office told Vanguard that the last time they were paid their monthly stipends was in December 2022.
