Several areas of Lagos being supplied water by the Lagos State Water Corporation have been enduring lack of water supply in the last two months.
The Lagos State government came under heavy criticism Tuesday after the state’s Water Regulatory Commission announced it had sealed a private water agency on Banana Island for falling short of quality standards for water production in the state.
This exercise was done amidst the acute water shortage bedevilling many residents of Lagos State as a result of the failure of the state government to supply water. “While maintaining that the Lagos State government is very much interested in the quality of the water consumed by residents, Adepoju declared that no unwholesome practice that will endanger the people’s health would be allowed,” the statement contained.
The organisation said the 13 waterworks visited during a three-month investigation on the status of the waterworks in Lagos revealed the ‘grim water situation’ in the state.
