Lagos To Seize Clothes Spread In Open Places by mukina2: 9:55am On Mar 15, 2012
The Lagos state government says it would start to seize clothes spread on balcony railings, along major highways, bridges, railings on landscape sites, walkways and other open public spaces across the state.

The Lagos State Commissioner for Environment, Tunji Bello, who made the declaration on Wednesday during an inspection tour to some areas in the state, said those who engaged in the “uncivilised acts” would be prosecuted according to the state sanitation laws.
According to him, public buildings, bridges and residential buildings along major highways in the state, especially on Kingsway and Awolowo roads are often used by citizens to spread their clothes.
“Some of the private and government buildings on these routes have been turned into drycleaners lines for the spreading of washed clothes along many highways and inner streets. This act is also noticeable in areas where we have large concentration of mechanic workshops as well as along drainage alignments”, he said.
The commissioner urged residents to spread their washed clothes within the confines of their environment, instead of littering public places. He further admonished landlords to educate their security guards on the implications of the act, saying the government would not hesitate to apply the full sanctions of sanitation laws on any culprit.

Yes o. Am beginning to adopt to d new nairaland. Atleast, its no longer pricking my eyes. Good for lagos. D city is a civilised city so uncivilised people shouldn't make it an uncivilised state. If not, one day some people will surely go and spread bedsheets, washed carpets and rugs on the railings of third mainland bridge.

Don't mind them o Jare dear commissioner, some people are even spreading theirs on electric poles, make sure you arrest them too or else they will simply come back tomorrow and spread towels and underwear instead! grin

This Commissioner is really 'working' to make Lagos a saner place for people to live in. <I wonder when they will do something about agberos?>
Re: Lagos To Seize Clothes Spread In Open Places by Jemibee: 10:37am On Mar 15, 2012
I concur !! That's what they should do jare...Lagos and it's unlawful residents. I tire for them ooo

I remember my late mom never allowed any of her tenants do such. Even if she didn't live in the same compound, she used to go on unscheduled visits and once she saw such, she always drew their attention to it saying it made the whole place look unkept.

At least let there be decency and sanity in doing things...to spread cloths on outside railings or exposed areas is improper especially on highways. Kudos to Commissioner for Environment once again!!

Erm,Mr commissioner,what is the health and environmental implications of spreading clothes on balcony railings?Why not ask your moms if this practice has not been on before you were born. You're just in need of serious media and public attention,probably due to neglect you suffered as a child. I can't even imagine any of your agents intruding my privacy and residence to effect your stupid order ,because I'm an addicted balcony railings,clothes spreader.
