Health and safety concerns are rising due to a rat infestation along a pathway near Lentegeur Metrorail station. A local resident reported seeing several rats on this busy route, which is used daily by commuters, shoppers, and schoolchildren.
The pathway, located on "PRASA-owned property" near Hyacinth Primary School, is a key access point for residents heading to the nearby marketplace and other destinations.
Lentegeur resident Aisha Baker said she uses the route almost daily and recently witnessed a group of boys chasing a rat near the pathway.
