The Lagos Waste Management Authority has commenced the clearing of heaps of refuse that littered the Oshodi Bus Terminal corridor, following a PUNCH Metro report.
Our correspondent reported on Wednesday that despite Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s directive ordering the immediate scale-up of waste evacuation across Lagos, heaps of refuse still littered parts of Oshodi.
Residents, traders and commuters had complained of the persistent stench and expressed concerns for looming health risks.
During a follow-up visit by our correspondents on Thursday, it was observed that LAWMA trucks and waste containers had been deployed to the area, while most of the refuse had been cleared.
