Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has given the green light for the reinstatement of monthly environmental sanitation in the state.
The Commissioner for Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab, informed journalists that the State Executive Council has endorsed this decision.
He mentioned that the sanitation exercise, slated to begin in July, will be formally announced by the governor in the near future.
“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 state government stopped the monthly environmental sanitation exercise in the state in 2016.
