Residents around Ikotun Market and Ejigbo Road have resorted to dumping refuse on highways, amid complaints over inadequate waste collection and the absence of visible Lagos State Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) operations in some streets. The development comes as illegal dumpsites and refuse heaps persist in parts of Ejigbo, raising concerns over sanitation, public health and the environment. Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu recently declared a “small state of emergency” on waste management, while announcing plans to increase waste-disposal capacity, deploy more equipment and restructure LAWMA’s operations.
