Eko Hot Blog reports that in an official Facebook post, Mr. Tokunbo Wahab, the Honorable Commissioner for Environment in Lagos State, has made an appeal to residents regarding cleanliness during the rainy season.
The post states:
“The rainy season is here. Keep your environment clean and your drains free from dirt. Dispose of your waste properly. Do not empty your trash in the drains.”
It concludes with a call for collective responsibility:
“Lagos is OUR property. Keep Lagos Clean!”
The Commissioner’s message highlights the importance of proper waste disposal methods and maintaining clear drains to mitigate potential environmental hazards associated with the rainy season.
By urging citizens not to discard trash in drains, the advisory aims to prevent clogging and flooding incidents that could arise from improper waste management practices.
The emphasis on Lagos being a shared property underscores the need for community involvement and individual accountability in preserving the city’s cleanliness and environmental well-being.
As the rainy season sets in, this timely advisory from the Lagos State Environment Commissioner serves as a reminder for residents to adopt responsible waste disposal habits and take pride in maintaining a clean and sustainable environment for all.
