The Lagos State Government on Saturday announced a total ban on the operations of cart pushers and wheel barrow operators in the State, saying that their activities were inimical to the environmental cleanliness in the State.



The State Government said that with the flag off of the Cleaner Lagos Initiative (CLI), the continuous activities of cart pushers will pose a threat to the success of the initiative.



According to the state govt, investigations had also revealed that the cart pushers are responsible for most of the illegal dumping of waste in canals and road medians at night which causes flooding, adding that they were also traces of security threats.



The State Government has finalised plans to ensure that the CLI would cover every area of the State and ensure that refuse are well packed and collected, urging residents to desist from patronising them or risk prosecution.

Our Lagos governor or their own state governor?

Is the governor responsible for their birth? Did whoever gave birth to them had a life plan for them?

Abeg.........

The governor should also provide saner alternatives in stead of the carts and wheelbarrows. Unfortunately, this may be misinterpreted by so many people.

Okay o, make una no stop there o. add more police to strategic location around Lagos mainland.

Nice

1. Go to school
2. Learn skill
3. Learn business

They are all presentable and proud of rather all these...

Another distraction. Come and ban them inside Ladipo auto market.

Meanwhile clueless Benue governors is empowering the able bodied youths with wheel barrow.
Tell me, why won't Fulani herdsmen attack innocent benue people?

.

people with loads go hear am hot.
make obaseki nor go try am for Benin City o
this one when he be say to get bus for Benin you need to treck first

imagine you dey go sapele road then you need to treck with your load
from ring road to airport road first
na wa o

now this a great challenge, apart from them feeding their families, people will have to carry their load themselves in market and other places....... I think this is not a good idea

That is most people source of livelihood.
Government should provide alternative means before placing a total ban on certain things.

Misplaced priority

They should have been well notified at least 3 months to the ban so that they could have ample time to create an alternative. A lot of mouths eat from that hustle and you just can't plunge them into hunger overnight.

From here, i think the news is talking about the use of those Mallams that do use truck to carry people's dirty.

I hope they have made adequate wayforward to this.

Ketu and Mile 12 markets on my mind.

Goan eat your cattle; D

The last time PSP came to my street was November, so we should be eating the dirts abi? Mstchewww

Ok for those using it for waste disposal, I thought it was wheelbarrows and carts in general. I totally support the move, those people dump refuse anywhere anyhow.

Why?

How?

so because they are victim of circumstances, they should be starved??

Eeyah omase oooo.ibosi oooo

In as much as the Governor wants the best for Lagos, he shouldn't fail to provide an alternative for those who buy stocks/go
ods that needs the services of wheelbarrows.
He'd have also given the wheelbarrow pushers some "reasonable" time to find another business.

Please, considering the rate at which people are losing 9-5 jobs, banning alternatives where people struggle saddens me.

I hope the state has plans to provide alternative employment as desperate people do desperate things.

However i applaud the sanitary initiative and hope it is implemented successfully.

Ogun will b flooded soon with barrow pushers.
Mind u if there's no alternative means provided by the government of Lagos,crime will definitely skyrocket

What will happen to those that have invested in wheelbarrow business
