Beginning on July 7, the Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) will start sealing homes without trash cans on Lagos Island and the mainland.
The agency’s head of public affairs, Mrs. Folashade Kadiri, made a statement on Wednesday, July 5, in which Mr. Kunle Adebiyi, the executive director for finance at LAWMA, verified it.
According to LAWMA, the exercise comes after abatement notifications were already sent to the impacted locations two months ago. Residents and property owners have been asked to get enough trash cans for their residences.
Pat of the statement reads;
The Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) has announced its intention to commence the intention to seal exercise, on homes without waste bins on Lagos Island and Mainland, beginning from 7th July 2023. This follows the earlier issuance of abatement notices to those areas two months ago, urging property owners and residents to procure adequate waste bins for their homes.”
