This eye of Lagos is propaganda blogging site. They are always reporting unserious news about the SW.

Just look at the quality of the report..
Sighs... instead of you to commend the writer and try to make this go viral so the govt can clean up the area, you go into defense mode. Will your defensive comments clean up the area?
Re: Top 10 Dirtiest Streets In Lagos That Will Make You Gag by Bluntemperor:
•O P,just continue to live a Fantacy life -AS if Lagos na the Worst Environmental decadence in Nigeria or on the Continent of Africa 🌍.
Anyway,your content makes interesting 🤔 reading and this is -a Clarion Calls for change in attitude by the government and the Lagosians too!
•The True Position Of Lagos Refuse Disposal:
-Appeal To The Lagos State Government -:
•But on a more Serious notes:
- Lagos Commissioner of Environment -Should do more- Not by issuing Orders or by Compulsive Command of Fines to Offenders ,
•BUT THE GOVT SHOULD FIRST CREATE PLACES ,WHERE DIRTYS/ Refuse -CAN Easily BE DISCHARGED BY THE RESIDENTS.
-For EXAMPLE - How many Places/ Locations-Can All the Residents of Ikorodu of over 5-Million People -Discharge their Dirty?
- Govt-Should Tell The Residents - which is not Available because You need To Get To Ojota- about 9-Kilometres Away to Drop Your Waste and is the Only Designated Places of Releasing Wastages So Far-the ONLY PLACE TO OFFLOAD YOUR DIRTS!
-COME AND SEE HOW DIRTYS LITTER EVERY WHERE, FROM THE GARAGE,TO THE IKORODU Streets and Suburbs and the Gutters are Filled, especially during this Heavy Rainfalls!
2.WHY CAN'T THE STATE DECIDES TO TRACK THIS MATTER OF LITTERING Dustbin- BY PROVIDING SOME DESIGNATION , AS A PUBLIC POLICY- LIKE THAT OF OJOTA- IN EVERY LOCAL GOVT and IN ALL Lagos State Areas and LCDA?
3- Another Crucial issue is that- the Present Govt Back -LAWNMA ARRANGEMENTS- IS INADEQUATE FOR OVER 25- Million People of Lagos State and Also these Refuse Disposal Workers Are Poorly Remunerated.
4•Here the Govt or its Agency - Can't cope With The Huge Refuse - from the People and those in Gutters/ Damages - Whose Responsibility is to Pack and Removed them to the Refuse - Site,in OJOTA?5.Even with the LAWNMAN-Dilapidated Vehicles - THAT IS ALWAYS BREAKING DOWN AND,THE OPERATORS ARE NOT CONSISTENT IN THEIR WORK SCHEDULES, AS THEY ARE NOT TIMELY,HENCE MORE HANDS NEEDS TO BE EMPLOYED BY THE AGENCY IN CHARGE, THROUGH GOVT SUPPORT.
6, Govt- Should:
- either Provide thousands of Vehicles or Add More By Calling on the Private Sector -Finances and Stand By The Arrangement/ CONTACT AGREEMENT.
•For Only the Best IS GOOD FOR LAGOS STATE :
And Lagos Govt- Should As A matter of Urgency - Create -A Mini- Special Budget Allocation- to Fund the Purchases and Servicing of The both New and Old -Refuse Vehicles ,in the Whole Lagos State.
God Bless Lagos State.

This thread is an unnecessary one with no meaning. It’s designed to spread hate and propaganda.

I am disappointed that it is on front page.
No.
It's meant to call the attention of the government to those areas.
Just give it a few days and you'll see.
Sanwo-Olu is on nairaland and gets first-hand information about things his aides won't tell him. That's one of the reasons he's very proactive.

Omoh,that mile2 axis na wa!!!
All the way from mile2 down to Liverpool,e gba mi, Oloun,haaaaa!!!!!?
It topping number 1 is for a reason, didn't even doubt.

Road that was just recently rebuilt... It wasn't upto 2 months before they filled up the whole gutters with trash and poops.

It was even 10000x worse before renovation, soakaway smells better than that road.


As for the boundary on the list, that could be before... There's been serious changes for the past 2 years. You only see dirty of wastage management vehicle didn't show up for days.

Oga try dey fear God ,you call this propaganda?or you are being sentimental too.I am a Yoruba man and was born and bred in Lagos.This present Lagos is something else,the politicians turned everything upside down.Waste management/drainage/sewage and other environmental related activities use to be handled by local government when we were young,but in a case where local govts are stopped from performing their functions,the state government dictate for them with no allocation from federal govt despite court injunction over local govt autonomy.

When will you do the dirtiest streets in both Anambra and Abia. I can provide you with top 100 streets from each state.
The person who owns EyeofLagos is a Yoruba man. Direct your frustrations to the right quarters and leave Anambra/Abịa alone

All these places you quote except two or three, are dominated by non-yoruba residents and traders especially those who claim to be developers of Lagos. Go and verify. (Besides, why is Agege Motor Road in Mushin not in your list? Just go and visit that road and you will update this list).

Can't this filthiness be tackled by the Government head-on once and for all? It's rather appalling seeing dirty littering some of the streets and especially markets environments. Come to Uyo Akwa Ibom State is see cleanliness, even to the remotest villages. I am not from there but can attest to that, the level of the cleanliness of their streets and roads gladens my heart.

AlphaTaikun:
Go back and read my post properly.

I CLEARLY stated that the Onne River Port is very ACTIVE so those saying they are in Lagos because of the seaports should move to Onne River Port and do their imports from there. Period.
Onne is not a seaport.

At least i can speak positively of Enugu, Umuahia and Aba! The aforementioned cities have cleaned up their act!
Including Akwa-Ibom & UYO.

One of my favorite states.

Even Victoria Island and its environs are filled with street urchins and weed smoking youths. Beggars everywhere. What else do they want to see to understand lots of youths are doing drugs. U see people gather everywhere smoking like Vi is now Ajegunle. Adeola Odeku and other streets.

I am living in Lagos and I must say this, Lagos is a very dirty state. There is no place you will enter in Lagos that you will not see shit scattered around the road. Sick and tired of this nonsense place called Lagos.

ComeToJesus:
Just try to Cross that Pako bridge in Ajeggunle boundary to Apapa, you go fear. The water flowing there is pitch black. I saw what I thought were bags of sand stacked in the mud, not knowing they were pigs taking cooling from the contaminated water. One was even tearing up a dead chicken 🐔 😢 😭
