The program aimed to extend support to local businesses and restore normalcy after the unfortunate events of mayhem, destruction, looting, and burning that occurred in the city on January 10, 2024.

Emphasizing on the initiative’s significance in rebuilding trust and confidence within the city, Governor Parkop expressed his gratitude to ACDP volunteers for this crucial clean-up endeavour. He also thanked all the city residents, volunteers, communities, and everyone who came out within their areas to clean up.
