Lagos State government, through its Environmental Sanitation Corps , also known as Kick Against Indiscipline , has prosecuted about 5,000 offenders in the last six months and generated millions of naira to the state’s coffers.

Olatunbosun said the prosecution further reinforced the agency’s zeal to rid the state of environmental infractions while constantly monitoring the environs to make Lagos State habitable for business.“Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has entrusted a big mandate in our hands to make Lagos State habitable for all to do business, and we remain committed to reducing the spate of environmental infractions to the barest as enshrined in the THEMES+ agenda of this administration.

“To make Lagos habitable for business, we must imbibe a culture of positive environmental practices via proper waste disposal by patronising approved PSP operators, prompt payment of waste bills to avoid prosecution, recycling and regular environmental sanitation to reduce the spate of communicable diseases while discouraging pollution of the environment.”

The Nigeria Customs Area 2 Command in Onne, Rivers State, has intercepted seven containers with the banned codeine syrup worth House and property owners along the ongoing Circular Road project from six local councils of Oluyole, Egbeda, Ona-Ara, Ido, Lagelu
