The Nation Newspaper We are not afraid to enforce our environmental laws – Lagos commissioner

The Lagos state government has restated its commitment to enforcing environmental laws to the benefit of the greater majority of residents.

Wahab also insisted that the recent removal of structures on the alignment of Odo Iya Alaro River in Mende Villa estate, Soluyi, Ifako, Arowojobe under system 1, though painful, was based on the overriding public interest.He said governance ‘is not a tea party, but about taking very painful decisions which will ultimately benefit the majority. Cynics should therefore wait till 2027 for politicking as now is the time for governance.

“The original dimension was 140 meters for the setback, but the government has decided to put a human face to the enforcement process by moving 60 metres to Ogudu/Maryland section and 40 metres to Ogudu/Odo Iyaloro, making it 100 metres. He added: “Most times developers get approvals, but build beyond the approved limits, and this is the case of Mende. They got approval for like 28 units but built 38 units. The facts are there to be verified.
