Lagos Seals Building Without Toilet

A building in Lagos state has been sealed due to its poor sewer tank state.

The Lagos state Wastewater management announced the closure of the building in a statement released from it’s office.

The agency revealed that a building in the Agege area of Lagos, containing 10 rooms exhibits a poor cleanliness and general hygiene routine.

Confirming this on his X handle, the commissioner, Ministry of Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab said;

“LSWMO in continued demonstration of its commitment to a sustainable environment, proper sanitation and public health safety in the state has sealed off a residential property on Adedosu Street, Otubu, Agege.

“This was following the receipt of a public complaint from concerned residents.

The bungalow with over 10 rooms has no toilet facilities but dilapidated pit latrines filled with exposed faecal matter,” he said.

He also commended the General manager who supervised the closure of the property, adding that the Lagos state government cannot afford another cholera outbreak.

“Citizens are further advised to embrace proper sanitation and hygiene practices to enhance public health and environmental sustainability,” he said
