There is no civilised part of the world where a day is set aside for human vehicular movement restrictions on account of sanitation. This is going back to the old unproductive ways of doing things. Simply put the government agency in charge of ensuring that people keep their neighbourhood clean, on their toes and watch how things turn out. Declaring a day for sanitation will not guarantee a clean environment, people will simply take that to play football on the deserted street, watch movies or engage in other activities that are not sanitation-related.

If you like, clean Lagos everyday, it will still smell badly.
The smell of tinubu's legacies ain't going nowhere.
Tinubu built Lagos to be a haven for ghettos, shanties, slums and agberos.
If you like, vacuum-clean Lagos, its smell will be so worse, it will make the smell of a rotten fish tolerable..

All. thanks to scott iguma

If he hadn’t said that Lagos is smelling

They wouldn’t have taken actions.

They really need it. And the said Thursday sanitation should continue too. All market men and women, lock & shops should be force to carry out the exercises. The government should invest in waste management by providing good vehicles for carrying the waste. There should proper waste dumping sites where some of the waste be converted for another purpose. They should not give to party chief to handle it but they can give it to reliable private companies. These will create job opportunities at all local government area across Lagos state.

Do you now the cost of building an substrata network of drainages and sewers
Do you now how many houses that will have to give way
You dey mind am. They use mouth do analysis but the brain is not there. If they start demolishing houses na them go still talk say govt is destroying houses when they could have mandated sanitation day.

Nothing fit please this guys!

Do you think these people are not reading our comments on social medias? People were bashing Lagos State to be smelling badly, which is true now they wanna commence the sanitation. They should be arresting people dropping dirt on the floor and water ways. Once you finish drinking your bottle water or soft drink keep the pet bottle in your bag or dispose it off in a wastebasket. Some people are just filty.

The Lagos state government should stop messing around and build proper underground drainage systems.

No modern city does this “clean up day” nonsense because the infrastructure negates the need for that.

If you build roads with covered drainage and sidewalks, there would be no need to force residents out of their homes to dig rubbish from your filthy open gutters.

There’s no need for an “environmental day” in Abuja, because the infrastructure is well built, and there are no filthy open gutters to “clean up”.
I had to log in to like this post

Wish I could like it a million times.

People will be saying, "don't throw stuff in gutters", but like, why do you have an open gutter in the first place?

Imagine if your bathtub or sink, had one massive hole big enough to take a human, instead of small holes that barely let hair through, wouldn't your shampoo bottle, soup bar, body wash... be falling inside your bathroom or sink "gutter"?

Instead, when your shampoo bottle falls in the bathtub, you don't worry that it will enter one hole, you simply pick it up, cause the drain hole can never allow something of that size to pass through.

No Nigerian in 2025 should support open gutter.

It's sad, even in Oniru V.I with houses worth millions, when you walk on the street, you'd see the most greenish algae filled, poo filled, urine pool called gutter.

Not bad as long as it doesn't encroach movements.

Look at the open drain in one of the pictures. How will that not have a smell?

Almost everyone is guilty of this. I sometimes wonder who thought us to throw our bottle water from car window to the street? I look at 1960 short video, Nigeria was super clean in Lagos despite being the capital of Nigeria that time.
Remember environmentL sanitation as a kid then, where everyone will come out to clean the drainage and everyone will talk politics and you see sanitation officers parading main street and others.
While though I was little I could still remember. Lagos was super clean then though the drainage system then was very poor.

Rwanda has open gutters, have you seen how clean the country is? Indian has underground drainage systems but it's 10x dirtier than Nigeria. The reality is, a clean society is heavily influenced by the mentality of its populace.

Abuja is more sparsely populated, that's why it's cleaner. Not because of any gutters.

In Nigeria, government's responsibilities are always pushed to the citizens, particularly poor citizens. Lagos State Government has no sanitation trucks, have no waste disposal facilities/incinerators, have no sanitation officers, but want to put the responsibility of disposing waste on ordinary citizens, by infringing on the fundamental constitutional rights of free movement, which the courts have already frowned on.

It has already been declared unconstitutional and illegal by the courts. The Lagos State government is only attempting to wake a dead horse.
