It is actually brilliant and it's effect is positive on the environment and their livelihoods.
Single Use Plastics are more expensive and the social cost is becoming unbearable to the rest of us not in the sectors profiting from the use of SUPs. The sachet water has since outlived its usefulness and has turned to complete nuisance apart from making water more expensive.
These old archaic environmental practices need to give way and I am profoundly proud that my Lagos State is taking the lead.

The waste has started reducing since the ban on Styrofoam and once we sort out the SUP of bottled water and waste sachet from pure water, we would have solved a huge environmental and economic problem.

The bottled water can come in cheap reusable plastics while sachet water will suddenly become more expensive so the stakeholders now earn more margins as more people move to reusable bottled water and later biodegradable containers.

Jan 2025 is long enough advance notice and I urge the stakeholders to cooperate with the Lagos State Government.

This is the best time to invest in Lagos. Invest in Lagos for great returns on your investment and best investor-friendly experience in Nigeria and Africa.

May God bless Nigeria for ever! Check my signature for free stuffs!
It is those who are alive that can enjoy the "environment" you so much want to protect.

This is a wish that will not come true. Mark my words

1. Before pure water we have been drinking water
2. The sachet is become a huge environmental and health danger for a state like Lagos.
3. We can still make do with water bottles which u fill up and take along.
4. Water from the tap will foster communial living that will make up bond with eachother better. A shared resource brings people together
I drank directly from tap as a kid but how many houses in Lagos have pipe borne water today?
The countries making this policies have drinkable water running in their taps 24/7

Before satchel water market women tied ice water and sold in everywhere but packaging lacked hygiene.

This idea of "banning" everything because the white man says so is actually dumb.
You can implement environment friendly solutions that are tailored to your own local environment.

Talk is cheap. May God spare our lives till Jan 2025 and beyond. Will be interesting to watch how you will ban ratchet water and also ban bottled water

No "table water", no "pure water". What option(s) have they now given business owners and consumers? Or they considered banning the pure water business without putting consumers into consideration?

BTW:

Reno Omokri, despite all his divisive inclinations, attacks, vituperations, and hate speeches against the people of the South East while living abroad, entered the country and only to be seen having a handshake with Mr President? Isn't that a show of appreciation for doing what he was being paid to do?
you sound surprised bro

NO, the water is supplied by Thames water, a private company .I'm still waiting for you to answer my question!
Re: Lagos Government Bans Pure Water From January 2025 by c3cc(m): 10:25pm On Oct 05, 2024
Bad leadership. They want to start taxing people on borehole water.
lexy2014:
apart from employment, pure water has a filled a void the government failed to fill.

providing water is the responsibility of government but it has failed to do its job.

some people filled the void and the government wants to stop them from doing the job.

any alternative to pure water....NO
