Finima Dumpsite Rehabilitation: A Community-Led Leap Towards a Sustainable Future

Finima, Bonny LGA – 12 September 2025

The Finima community has embarked on a landmark environmental initiative with the commencement of the long-awaited rehabilitation of the Finima Dumpsite. The clean-up exercise, which began on 8 September 2025, marks a turning point in the quest for a healthier, safer, and more sustainable Finima.

The project, spearheaded by the Amadabo-in-Council of Finima, is being carried out in collaboration with construction firms currently operating in the community. The united effort reflects both visionary leadership and a practical commitment to improving the quality of life for residents.

Appreciation to Community Liaison Officers

The Finima Youth Congress (FYC) has publicly commended the role of Community Liaison Officers (CLOs) in ensuring the success of this project. In a statement issued by Opara Henry C. Brown, Director of Environment, on behalf of the Chairman of FYC, the Congress praised:

  • Kobo Alabere of Evomeck
  • Akio Brown of MPI
  • Tumini Brown of Northridge

Their professionalism, dedication, and leadership were described as instrumental in anchoring this crucial community vision.

“Your companies’ proficiency and unwavering dedication to this project have brought about a monumental improvement for our community,” the statement read. “This achievement is a clear testament to your commitment to Finima and your professional responsibilities. Your efforts have not gone unnoticed, and we commend your outstanding work.”

From Liability to Opportunity

The rehabilitation project aims not only to clear the long-neglected dumpsite but also to transform the land into a resourceful community asset. Plans for the reclaimed site include new community spaces that will promote social interaction, recreation, and economic development.

This initiative is more than just an environmental clean-up; it represents a bold step towards sustainability, aligning with global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). By addressing long-standing environmental hazards, the project also opens pathways to job creation and new investment opportunities for Finima residents.

A Collective Vision for a Healthier Future

The support of the Amadabo-in-Council has been central to the progress of this rehabilitation. Their leadership continues to inspire collective responsibility and partnership between the community and private sector stakeholders.

As work progresses, optimism runs high that Finima will soon boast an environment where residents can thrive in healthier surroundings, with improved prospects for social and economic development.

The Finima Youth Congress reaffirmed its commitment to supporting such community-driven projects and called on all stakeholders to sustain the momentum until the rehabilitation is completed.
