Libreville urban sanitation campaign

Overview

In Libreville, Gabon, Mayor Eugène M’ba has initiated a major campaign to address urban unsanitary conditions and civic incivility. The operation began in the Louis district of the 1st arrondissement, targeting waste management and the maintenance of commercial storefronts.

The municipality is deploying specialized enforcement units, including central and sector-specific brigades composed of agents from the Municipal General Inspection, the General Directorate of the Environment, and the General Directorate of Cadastre. These teams are tasked with patrolling the city, raising public awareness, and enforcing municipal regulations.

To ensure compliance, the city will impose fines on residents and economic operators who violate hygiene rules or fail to follow collection schedules established by the operator Clean Africa. The campaign seeks to secure cleared sites and prevent the re-emergence of illegal waste accumulation points.
