Refuse dumps at Apatira, Cash, Alaguntan axis of Alimosho Local Government Area (NAN)
Some residents of Alimosho Local Government Area of Lagos State on Saturday expressed frustration over months of uncollected refuse, saying the situation has diminished the impact of the state’s monthly environmental sanitation.
The residents, who spoke with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) during the June sanitation, gave differing views on the initiative, with some questioning its effectiveness and others insisting that keeping their surroundings clean remains a shared responsibility.
NAN reports that the Lagos State Government reintroduced the monthly sanitation exercise on April 25, 2026.
The exercise, held every last Saturday of the month, restricts movement between 6:30 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. to encourage residents to clean their surroundings.
