The Water Producers Association of Nigeria (HWAPAN), Alimosho Zone 3, Lagos State, on Friday, urged members to prioritise safety, cleanliness and personal hygiene during production.

Abanus Agbofida, chairman of the association, gave the advice during the inauguration of a new executive committee at Ijegun.

Mr Agbofida said that hygienic production must involve rigorous cleanliness, personal hygiene for workers, and proper facility maintenance, which the zone had strictly adhered to.

Similarly, the coordinator of the association, Stella Michael, said HWAPAN’s goals were hygienic production to minimise contamination and other hazards, thereby protecting public health.

The national public relations officer of HWAPAN, Solomon Shogunle, said that hygienic production also involved environmental controls and facility design, while machines and other equipment must be easy to clean.

The newly sworn-in executives pledged to continually serve the people of Alimosho by producing and supplying them with hygienic water.

The swearing-in ceremony was attended by HWAPAN state chairman, Ebabuchi Ebere, amongst other members.
