E go hard oh! When was it banned? You ban something same day you are implementing the ban. Do you know traders have such goods worth hundreds of millions of naira in their possesion? They should burn their goods abi? The best solution is to work with the manufacturing companies so they can switch to producing paper takeaway packs. The enduser is not your problem. 73 Likes 5 Shares |

Anyone who is observant enough would see first hand the havoc these styrofoam packs cause to our drainages...but they don't just develop legs and walk to these drains, they're used and disposed by people. And until we develop a comprehensive waste management approach to deal with stuff like these, you can ban styrofoam today and something else will just take its place tomorrow. Same issues are also posed by plastics used to package soft drinks, are we going to ban those too?? anyilalaz: The reason is simple, these cans/containers are being recycled. So an aluminium can/container/car doors, etc can be recycled even back to their former selves.. infinitely. That's why you see scavengers pick them, crush them and sell. 64 Likes 3 Shares |

Good development. In fact a ban on "nylon bags" should follow ASAP. What irritates me is the ignorance of so called educated Nigerians and some Nairalanders who happens to be among the dumbest set of people on the planet. Styrofoam and plastic/nylon bags have nothing to do with global warming or climate change. I see people mixing up soil and water pollution with the scam called "global warming and climate change". They are not the same. Global warming and climate change is an illusion created and promoted by a group of billionaires to gain more power and control over society. What we should be concerned about as environmentalists is land, soil, air and water pollution, not "Global warming or climate change" which does not exist. 11 Likes 3 Shares |

Good step, way to go. Phased out ban and a transitional arrangement to get every stakeholder on board. I hope compliance is monitored and enforced. |

Good one Although we need to educate people on waste management because it was people who dispose it there Some of my friends were laughing at me when I told them that I don't throw off my waste after using it until I get home 1 Like |

The problem is that our people doesn't know how to use this, how to trash it; they litters it everywhere and it causes drainages blockades.. Raining reason will soon come, these new constructed drainages will be blocked by this, satchet water, others.. It won't be easy for people who uses it. |

I see the prices of nylon bags skyrocketing, I see weddings and parties putting Rice inside nylon bags for people as take away, I see guests saying that they prefer nylon bags to Styrofoam because once you tie nylon bag the food would not pour. I see a thread about Styrofoam and nylon bags which do you prefer hitting the front page, I see Nigerians learning how to eat with their bare hands from nylon bags. This I have seen. 7 Likes 1 Share |
