Despite Government’s
effort to achieve a clean and hygienic
state, the indiscriminate dumping of refuse on Lagos roads has become a
worrisome issue to the traders and residents of Ketu and its environs.
They
decried the stench oozing from the refuse dumped on the road and streets in
places such as Mile 12, Ketu and Ojota road.
Meanwhile,
The waste crisis in Lagos State has become anomalous with the increased volume of garbage on the streets,
roads, and highways. It would be recalled
that in 1999, waste was competing with vehicles and pedestrians, the
Association of Waste Managers of Nigeria reported.
However, the traders made an appeal to the government, stakeholders, and relevant authorities of the state to take
necessary steps in achieving a cleaner Lagos.
