According to him, “The Lagos State Government is fully committed to environmental sustainability and has developed a comprehensive, multi-sectoral approach to ensure a clean, resilient, and livable city.
“Waste and sanitation challenges in a rapid!! growing megacity like Lagos require structural solutions-not soundbites or political rhetorics.
Lagos is not “smelling”; Lagos is evolving— toward sustainable waste processing, modernized landfill management, cleaner waterways, and structured sanitation systems.
“The @followlasg remained steadfast in its commitment to building a cleaner, more sustainable city through strategic environmental initiatives.
