The Lagos State Government has arrested about 30 environmental offenders, for improper disposal of waste and flagrant disregard of the environmental laws of the state, pending their arraignment before a magistrate court next Monday.
This was disclosed in a statement signed by the Director, Public Affairs, Lagos Waste Management Authority, Folashade Kadiri, on Saturday.
According to the statement, this action is in continuation of the state’s zero tolerance policy, involving a combined team of LAWMA and the state Environmental Sanitation Corps.
