These PSP people have come back again, I thought they settled their standoff with visionscape some weeks back, what's all this one again... I think they are trying to kick out Visionscape by all means because they are not allowed to collect money from us again. They want to go back to the former system of waste collection, that's why they are doing everything to chase visionscape away.. That's the way me I see it o. It's now election you people want to be using to fight visionscape so that Lagos can send them away and you people will resume collecting money from us.... No, we don't want. Visionscape should stay and keep packing the dirts for free.

Not less than 300 employees by Cleaner Lagos Initiave, an initiative of Visionscape who have a partnership with the Lagos State Government to keep the Lagos environment clean.

The affected workers are Sanitation Supervisors whose responsibility is to supervise Community Sanitation Workers that take care of the cleanliness of Lagos streets. Also they follow and monitor the activities of trucks that pick garbage from residents, engaged in blackspot evacuation and fly tipping. They were directly sacked by Standard Streey Manpower Limited, a contractor under Visionscape.

According to one of the sacked workers, “a lot of us resigned from previous jobs because we believe this job will be more career-based and futuristic. This sack from what we gathered has political undertone. 2019 election is fast approaching and the politicians who were contractors under the PSP arrangement and were doing a shabby job in cleaning Lagos are not happy that they lost their contracts. The Lagos State Government is therefore being blackmailed to give the contracts back so as to get their support in the upcoming election”

The reason given for this mass sack was not that the workers were not carrying out their jobs effectively, but that the Community Sanitation Workers are now to be under the Lagos State Ministry of Environment. The Ministry, therefore, ordered for the sack of the supervisors.

Below is a copy of the sack letter:

It's quite sad those supervisors lost their jobs, however it's not like a political conspiracy like a post i read concerning the issue. With this post I think I have a better understanding of what happened. It's a good thing they are restructuring but quite sad some had to lose their jobs in the process. It is well

chicwoman:
In March 2018, there was a review of the Cleaner Lagos implementation and one of the changes was that the Community Sanitation Worker program would be removed from private sector management and returned to the Ministry of Environment for supervision.
The company, Standard Street Manpower Limited has commenced a handover of the CSWs currently at 7000 in their employ to the Ministry who will supervise and monitor them. This handover has left the 300 supervisors redundant and the contractor has let them go in light with best employment practice including an additional month’s remuneration.

I really dont find this healthy for the people that love in Lagos. Making Lagos Clean is for the betterment of everyone. Why then will some people refuse to work with Visionscape to help further the progress of this project?

We really have a long way to go. Smh

Wow

I think this Cleaner Lagos is finally taking shape, honestly..i have to admit. I go to places and see how cleaner and better they have become, though i must admit some parts still need urgent attention, but i think with time, every area will be touched. I took some of these pictures today, if you have pictures of clean areas too, please share. If we call the government out when they are not working, we should praise them too when we see laudable efforts.

see MM road roundabout ooo

I thought I was the one that has been noticing how cleaner Lagos is becoming, what ever they government is doing I'm sure they are doing it well and maybe with time even the inner cities of Lagos will also be very clean aswell. I saw these pictures of Ikeja cantonement and allen roundabout somewhere online. And I passed there this morning and truly the environment was near and tidy

I know that we should question everything but the way some people go about it is not even nice sef

beehazel1:
Lmao this is so typical of Nigerians. Tueeeh. What's the need to of destroying sometning cause you don't want it to be appluadable. Nawa o. Make these Visionscape guys no give up sha, na my own be that.

yeankhar49:
honestly, I believe they can sustain it, look at their facility and equipment....you don't make huge investements like that and not sustain it...they look very serious

Yes I agree with you on this one

UrbanCulture06:
Mehn,this is enlightening..i use to see them around sef and because I don't know much until now I do not appreciate all the efforts

I'm glad I hopped on this link to see for myself

tybaba8:
Wow... These facts are so convincing

Very convincing.

beehazel1:
Oh I see. This thing is now clear to me oh. Ha this is enough reason why Visionscape should be given time na. Cause Me I thought It was the work of Visionscape Initially to be in charge of the whole waste management in Lagos, I didn't know they were to only manage domestic waste. Awwwn I hope people get to read this and understand better sha cause the thing no easy

I thought it was only me that has been noticing how clean some places have been. I have to take a picture on my way to work to send to my friend outside the country telling him that Lagos is getting cleaner o lol

Damorela00:
Wow.... these facts tho.. I didn't even know there is more to this issue that meets the eye.. I've always been an ardent critic of visio capes or so that's handling the waste, now my eye don clear oo... thumbs up guys, I'll try snap some pictures on my way out to see if things are really changing as per waste cleaned up off our streets

They have really been doing a good job ooo. Just like the way they are going about this initiative. Lagos is getting cleaner tho

After wey I read this facts cold catch me. so na these psps no cooperate with lagos come dey make Visionscape look like say dem no dey do anything. Omo I don tire for this people ah swear

Well this facts are interesting and I think they are also valid coming from where I stay. I could see that this vision escape people are really trying sha. I don't see dirt in my area like I used to before. I just pray this continues

This is a great initiative and I'm seeing CleanerLagos works in my environment. Thank you Lagos state government for this.
