The monitoring commission for neighbourhood forum committees continued its tour in Madaga, N’Djamena, to promote hygiene and sanitation. Its chair, Dakouma Abanguia, called on the local committee to step up its engagement with residents, according to Tchadinfos.

The monitoring and evaluation commission for N’Djamena’s neighbourhood forum committees called on members of the local Madaga committee to strengthen their efforts on hygiene and sanitation. Its chair, Dakouma Abanguia, conveyed the municipal executive’s message during a visit to the neighbourhood on 21 October 2026, Tchadinfos reports.

After discussions with the local committee, Dakouma Abanguia asked its members to relay this priority to residents and promote everyday sanitation practices. The visit is part of the municipality’s “zero waste” policy.

The tour in Madaga followed a meeting between the monitoring committee and residents of Mara 1 and Mara 2 on 18 October. During that earlier visit, the committee gathered the concerns of the two neighbourhoods.
