Obasempire reports that the Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has authorized the reinstatement of monthly environmental cleanup in the region.
According to Tokunbo Wahab, the Commissioner for Environment and Water Resources, who revealed this information, the State Executive Council has also granted its consent for the implementation of the monthly initiative.
However, he mentioned that the cleanup, scheduled to start in July, will be formally announced by the governor shortly.
“Lagos governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, and the state executive council have approved the re-introduction of the monthly sanitation.
“The governor will announce it officially for the exercise to commence this month,” Wahab, who spoke in Yoruba language, said in a 21-second clip shared on the Lagos State Environmental Update page on X.
The reintroduction of the monthly environmental sanitation may not be unconnected to the recent flooding affecting some majour parts of Lagos due to incessant rain.
