The refuse crisis in Lagos has persisted, with residents of Ejigbo and Idimu lamenting the failure of waste managers to evacuate refuse heaps that have remained on road medians for four months.
The residents said the heaps, which had accumulated on the median linking Ejigbo and Idimu, had remained unattended despite repeated complaints to the relevant authorities.
During a visit to the area on Sunday, our correspondent observed heaps of refuse dotting the medians at different points along the axis, particularly around the Dorcas and Church bus stops.
Residents said both Private Sector Participation operators and officials of the Lagos State Waste Management Authority had failed to evacuate the waste.
