Rivers State Targets Scrap Dealers | Nigeria News

Rivers State is cracking down on waste chaos with a new crackdown targeting scrap dealers, recyclers, and PET bottle collectors—forcing all of them to register or face legal consequences. RIWAMA’s profiling drive aims to root out illegal scavengers who tear open trash bags and litter streets, while also holding buyers accountable. Operators have one month to submit forms and documents; after that, enforcement teams armed with a digital app will verify legitimacy. With trash piling up in Port Harcourt and residents dumping waste recklessly, the state is sending a clear message: no more lawless scavenging—or you’ll pay the price.
