On 21st August 2025, the Managing Director of the Refuse Management and Sanitation Board (REMASAB) Dr. Muhammad S. Khalil held a strategic meeting with representatives of the Kundila Community to discuss sustainable solutions to prevailing waste management challenges within the area. The engagement formed part of REMASAB’s commitment to promoting community-driven approaches to environmental sanitation and improving service delivery across Kano State.

The discussions focused on identifying practical and long-term solutions to enhance waste management within the community, including community-based interventions, the commercialization of waste management services to improve operational efficiency and sustainability, and the proposed relocation of the existing waste collection point to a more suitable location along the Fandaudu axis.
