Lagos Seals Properties and Healthcare Facility Over Illegal Sewage Disposal

The Lagos State Government sealed three properties at Nos. 39, 41 and 43 James Okiki Street in Oko-Oba for discharging raw sewage into the environment. The Lagos State Wastewater Management Office also shut Darvinks Healthcare in Ajao Estate for pumping sewage directly into public drains instead of using an authorised evacuation provider. LSWMO General Manager Engr. Adefemi Afolabi warned that violators could face sanctions, premises closures and prosecution. He also cautioned the public against harassing enforcement officers.
