Lagos State government has unveiled a new system of managing solid wastes in state that involves deploying sanitary officers in all the wards, recycling large percentage of wastes and possibly exporting part of the wastes.
The State Commissioner for Environment, Dr. Babatunde Adejare who made this known during a briefing with environment reporters said the idea was to commercialize waste management for wealth and job creation, as well as ensure a clean Lagos amidst cancellation of the Monthly Environmental Sanitation Exercise by government.
