The group warned that the practice poses serious public health risks across Lagos State.
The Citizens Action Network, a non-profit organisation, has accused the Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) and its Private Sector Participation (PSP) operators of charging residents for waste collection services allegedly not rendered.
The group warned that the practice poses serious public health risks across Lagos State.
In a press statement issued on Saturday by its National Public Relations Officer, Ade-Adewunmi Adeoye, the group alleged that many communities had not been serviced by refuse collection trucks for several months despite residents continuing to receive monthly waste disposal bills.
The organisation described the practice as "illegal, unethical, and amounts to extortion."
