This is good but dangerous for early morning road users and drivers.I have heard several cases of people who lose their lives due to the carelessness of LAWMA truck drivers in the early morning.

One of the reasons l dislike Ambode even though he's from Epe like me is because of the extremely dirty state of Lagos

The reason why l think l might like Sanwoolu is his readiness to clean up Lagos...

I hope he succeeds...

AutoReportNG:
The Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA), says it has flagged off an intensive waste evacuation operation tagged, “Lagos at 4 am”, to address the menace of improper waste disposal in the metropolis.

Mr Obinna Onyenali, LAWMA Public Relations Officer, said in a statement on Monday in Lagos that the early morning operation was to fast track the clearing of waste from the streets of Lagos and restore environmental sustainability.

“We have embarked on this operation to restore the State to the path of cleanliness and environmental sustainability.

”This is in furtherance of the executive order against indiscriminate waste dumping recently signed by the Lagos State Governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu

”This early morning operation starts by 4am.

”At this time, we roll out our operational vehicles at strategic locations across the metropolis to sanitise the environment and mitigate waste challenges,” he said.

Onyenali added that the authority would not leave any stone unturned in its quest to clean up black spots across the state.

He said Lagosians should support efforts of the State Government by shunning the habit of dumping refuse indiscriminately, adding that they should patronise PSP Operators in charge of collecting refuse in their area.

Onyenali said also that the authority was committed to tackling the challenge of environmental degradation in Apapa area which had become inaccessible to refuse evacuation trucks.

He said that the task of restoring the environment in Apapa was one of the authority’s priority, so as to make the environment liveable for residents and businesses.

Onyenali attributed the deplorable state of Apapa environment to the take over of the area by articulated vehicles which blocked the roads and made it difficult for LAWMA trucks to operate.

He said, however, that the authority would intensify efforts to clear backlogs of wastes dumped within the Apapa environment as traffic situation in the area improve

Can you please shed light on how Ambode failed in this regard?

He did not sustain the momentum Asiwaju and BRF attained in waste management.

It's obvious that most part of Lagos was filthy under his reign when compared with his predecessors.

Ambode was SABOTAGED in this regard... undecided

Ultimately, we are going to learn (hopefully not the hard way, although that’s the only way that Nigerians seem to learn) that while trying to manage waste in this city of 18-20 million with a hodge-podge of PSPs (each with one or two used trucks in varying states of operational condition) may be POLITICALLY (and financially) beneficial for the APC party apparatchiks and benefactors who own/operate these PSPs, it is ultimately UNSUSTAINABLE, and that retaining a dumpsite in the middle of a populated area (at Olusosun) is a DISASTER waiting to happen.

Actually, it was the other way around, Ambode sabotaged Lagos state, Lagosians and LAWMAN because LAWMA was the best and the most efficient, well organized and advanced waste management agency in Nigeria and West Africa in general.

LAWMA kept refuse/garbage in check, they engaged and regulated PSPs and even created tens of thousands of jobs from the state agency level to the PSP level, they built multi-billion Naira waste management infrastructures from massive equipment to first class loading stations, quality management and training, recycling programs and so on.

Bottom line, Lagos state through LAWMA kept refuse/waste in check, LAWMA folks in the orange uniform were all over the place all day cleaning and sweeping.

LAWMA was a well-oiled organization, a massive crown jewel and pride of Lagos state government and Lagosians, but Ambode with his ego, destructive behaviour and petty appetite to destroy his predecessor's legacies and see me too syndrome destroyed LAWMA and the states massive and multi-billion Naira waste management agency and tens of thousands of jobs in favour of a foreign, unknown and incompetent company with zero money to operate with.

The imported company did not invest 1 kobo, they did not pay for 1 single wheelbarrow, Ambode gave them billions in bonds to operate with, our money and the money he should have invested in LAWMA and Lagosians. At the end of the day, the imported company couldn't do the job because they didn't know the terrain, they didn't have waste management skills and expertise and the result was Lagos buried under trash.

That fiasco exposed Ambode's incompetence, shortsightedness, unpatriotic attitude and disregard for established authority, jobs and Lagosians in general.

I'd understand if LAWMA was not working or if Lagos was buried under trash, but that was not the case under LAWMA. LAWMA was a superb agency and even the PSPs you tried to ridicule were tens of thousands of Lagosians with legal and well-deserved jobs and waste management value chain enterprise that Anode should have preserved because it was a perfect balance and ecosystem between LAWMA as waste management and regulating agency and the private job-creating sector.

Ambode sabotaged Lagosians, not the other way around.

Sanwo Olu and his team did their homework, they've identified critical issues and areas to address and of course, they've mapped out strategies hence the daily positive moves they've been making since inauguration

Typical meaningless and reetarded ipob nonsense.

In fact, I'd love to see the governor himself collecting trash, it's called leading by example, but of course, this concept is way way above your village square level hence the leaders in Lagos making positive moves every day since inauguration while the lazy and incompetent ones in your village are still crying and lamenting over toilet and handover note instead of working.
