We are delighted to announce that the Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC) has officially recognized the Waste Pickers Association of Nigeria (WAPAN) as the umbrella body for waste pickers operating within the council.
This remarkable achievement underscores the relentless commitment of the WAPAN executive committee and the invaluable support of key stakeholders, including GIZ Nigeria & ECOWAS.
This recognition not only validates the critical contributions of waste pickers to environmental sustainability but also sets the stage for strengthened collaboration, increased efficiency, and improved support systems for their activities.
Congratulations to WAPAN and the entire waste picker community! Together, we continue to make impactful strides toward a cleaner and more sustainable future.

Great WAPAN! Up Pickers!!
