LAWMA Operations Team has deployed bulk waste carriers, loaders, and support teams to clear identified illegal dump sites. From Alaba Rago, operations will extend to Okokomaiko and the median around Lagos State University (LASU), priority locations due to heavy pedestrian/vehicular activity and recurring indiscriminate dumping. Next, the clean-up will progress from Agric Bus Stop toward Mile 2, ensuring steady restoration of the entire corridor. This is not a one-off evacuation. It includes continuous monitoring, stakeholder engagement with traders and residents, sustained public sensitisation, and enforcement to prevent reoccurrence and keep the axis clean.

The Lagos State Government has reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to environmental enforcement with the arrest of Mr. Ogunbadejo Olawale, a resident of No 25, Ajiboye Street, Alapere, Ketu, for illegal waste dumping. The arrest was effected by a joint enforcement operation carried out by the operatives of the Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) and the Lagos State Environmental Sanitation Corps (KAI), following credible surveillance and tip-offs from members of the community. The offender was caught red-handed disposing refuse indiscriminately in public, thereby undermining the government’s efforts toward achieving a cleaner and more hygienic Lagos. His arrest is a clear demonstration of the state’s resolve to enforce environmental laws and restore sanity to public spaces. The suspect will immediately be prosecuted in accordance with the relevant law of the State. Dear Lagosians, your support and vigilance are the backbone of our success so far.

Beggars constituting environmental and public nuisance were arrested yesterday along the Lekki–Epe Expressway and other surrounding areas. These enforcement actions are part of our ongoing efforts to restore order, protect public spaces, and ensure a cleaner and safer Lagos. We will continue to sustain these operations across the State, as no one is above the law. Lagos must work for everyone, and public spaces cannot be allowed to degenerate into zones of disorder. #CleanerLagos

I drove past Oshodi under ridge via Agege motorway for the first time (I’ve always avoided that route while driving) and this is my concern. 👇 Oshodi is gradually going back to how it used to be before it was cleaned up and the terminal built few years back. The level of enforcement has dropped. The indiscriminate parking of commercial buses along the road, the loading and unloading of passengers are back on that road. This needs to be curbed. it’s also causing traffic. The Lagos State Govt LASTMA
