Lagos State Government has declared its readiness to boost the capacity of Private Sector Participation waste operators through the provision of equipment to increase their capacity with soft loans.
He said Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu is committed to providing capacity for the PSP operators to ensure they partner the state in removing refuse. He said in the coming weeks, he will meet leaders of market men, women, parks and garages on how to ensure that the parks and markets are always clean.The Environment and Water Resources commissioner said there is zero tolerance for indiscriminate dumping of refuse at markets and parks, warning that the Sanwo-Olu administration will not hesitate to shut any market or park that fails to engage the service of a PSP operator to properly dispose of its refuse.
He said in about four to five years, the only functional landfill site in the state at Olusosun will be filled up, adding that there is need to take advantage of a neighbouring state with landmass like Ogun in preparing for any eventuality.
