post=81204819:After cleaning the home, where are they supposed to keep the trash? Look there is no excuse for Lawma. People will always generate waste in any city. It is the duty of Lawma to clear it. Or else you expect people to make bonfires and burn all their waste daily. The same you will then complain about smoke/pollution. 1 Like |

Kingpee2:Do you have any idea the amount of electricity that foreign countries produce? I have heard that it is of the order of the entire Nigeria currently producing enough Electricity of ONE state in USA CCTV works on Electricity and cable/data lines It's not just a matter of hanging the unit on a pole. So much infrastructure is missing. Service/maintanance/IT |

I remembered WAR AGAINST INDISCIPLINE, throw any yeye thing or urinate for public place anyhow and smell pepper from the government but our naija people say the government policy too harsh. Ambode came and just scattered everything, the worst be say the yeye Ambode went ahead to cancelled the monthly environmental sanitation which automatically gave rise to how people dump their rubbish at every available place in Lagos. Once one person dump his/her waste on the street/roadside every other person will just follow suit. 1 Like |

Cantonese:sharrap and stop dumping refuse on the road, you pig Put your refuse in your bag or pocket until you find a trash can to dump it. After all, there would be no trash if you didn't buy that corn or soft drink. You are responsible for how it is disposed. You are responsible for your own surroundings, not LAWMA, you! 1 Like |

uuzba:they are not saying you should burn your own waste. They are saying stop the illegitimate dumping of waste on the road. Don't finish drinking pepsi and throw the can out of the window (onto the road) because your slave is going to go pick it up. They are saying don't dump trash in gutters. Why is that difficult to understand? |

I thought it was all Ambode’s fault... And now that he’s been ousted the problem should have long ended. Ambode brought in a multinational company with proven track record in several countries... But the APC Landlord(s) saw PSP licenses as bribes for party apparatchiks, and sabotaged the CLI! SMH > |

post=81204819:I gave up on Nigerians long ago. Governor Ambode fixed barriers on many highways to prevent the animals 'danfo bus' drivers from dropping off passengers on the way, there by causing traffic. The same people go at Night to remove those barriers. How's that government's fault? The same Nigerians disobey traffic lights when no traffic officers are in sight. Yet they cry when government disobey court orders. We need mind revolution first, before street revolution. Some Lazy staff get to work late, but complain that government is slow |

Debaiz:You sound like you are living in A cukoo land. You want to fine people who lives on less than $1 per day 500k? And were exactly do you want them to dump their refuse? when there are no sites provided by the Government. This is Nigeria we are talking about, you think Criminalising poor people will solve the problem? more intimidations and brutalisations will solve problems? you think? |
Re: Stop Dumping Refuse By Roadsides, LAWMA Tells Residents by Debaiz: 10:32am On Aug 13, 2019 |
gypsey: This is the kind of mentality that is keeping us down. So of everything I wrote up there it’s only 500k that you could see. With people like you abound in this country we will never move forward. When you’re ready to discuss the truth about my comment, you can mention me again. If not then Adieu. |
Re: Stop Dumping Refuse By Roadsides, LAWMA Tells Residents by Nobody: 10:48am On Aug 13, 2019 |
Debaiz:I think you would find that i wasn't even born in Nigeria Neither do i live in Nigeria. I was speaking from the perspective of an individual who grew up in a stable Functioning Nation. You want Nigerian Government to waste funds criminalising, Dishing out fines of 50k and locking up poor people who can not even Afford food. Every issues must be handled with heavy hands? how exactly would the culprits be Tracked? In Nigeria were there are no databases, social security numbers or fingerprints systems. You carefully Avoided my quetsions on were do you expect them to dump their refuse if no sites are provided for refuse dumping. Mate! i wouldn't want to indulge you further, It would be pointless. |

Bahddo: Can’t you see that you are that pig and a very lousy fool. You talk about carrying your refuse in your bag and your pocket until you find a trash can to dump it. If you were well trained by those who were supposed to train you and if you received good home training you’ll not exhibit such level of ignorance and lack of proper culture. It is people like you who carry refuse bags and faeces in their bags all around the place smelling and throwing them anywhere you find convenient. We are talking about government showing character and responsibility and you are here getting insultive. Mad fellow. |

Kingpee2:The government should first provide refuse bins across the state. Then be very prompt at clearing them. The abroad you talk about, every house has a bin which is wheeled out for the relevant agency to clear. Even if you put camera on people door and you do not provide them bin, they will still beat the system. First attend to the basics. |
Re: Stop Dumping Refuse By Roadsides, LAWMA Tells Residents by Debaiz: 11:43am On Aug 13, 2019 |
gypsey: First I didn’t avoid your question I intentionally ignored it cos you were being selective with your reply but now that you’ve come with a straightforward comment then we can talk. First LAWMA is the organization I charge of waste disposal and management in the state. There are lawma waste disposal drums all around lagos but you still see people dump refuse by the road side because they’re trying to avoid paying the tiny fee of maximum 4K per month(not because they can’t afford it but because they just want free things). Some dump the refuse on the road because they are too lazy to trek to the refuse dump drum. Apart from the drums, rolls of refuse disposal plastic bags are being sold for less than $2 and can last for several months. Second the lie that people live on less than $1 per day is not applicable to Lagos state cos you just cannot survive with such ridiculous amount in lagos and still have trash to dispose. You’d rather be living on other people’s trash. Third, the 50k fine is for the person who wants to avoid jail. Knowing Nigerians and our fear of jail people will pay the money and will never want to fall victim again. The bottom line is to avoid future occurrence. The fear of jail or being forced to pay 50k is the only thing that can set Nigerians straight if you know the kind of people we are. The 500k is for any offender who wants to contest for elective post. For you to want to contest for elective post anywhere in nigeria, you must be ready to spend nothing less than 1million with no guarantees of winning. To contest in lagos for the least post, you’d have more than N2m. Anyone that can spend up to that should be able to afford clearing his/her dirtiness record for 500k. Lastly the 50k mentioned is is not fixed and can be reduced but most importantly, it is to be levied on the houses and not 50k per each tenant. It will be contributed by all the tenants. Let them create a neighborhood watch to catch the offenders. If they don’t know it’s their responsibility to keep their surroundings clean then they should all contribute to pay for the fine. Any house with no tenant in lagos can conveniently afford 50k fine and even CCTV camera to exonerate themselves or catch offenders to avoid the 50k fine. |

Tundemanias: You guys are far from being serious, where are we going to dump it? On my head? Those years these LAWMA people use to come into our estate to collect trash but now we don't see them again. The reason why people dump it beside road side in Bin nylon is because of no other alternatives. Do you need a soothsayer to enlighten you on that? |
Re: Stop Dumping Refuse By Roadsides, LAWMA Tells Residents by kabuski(m): 12:50pm On Aug 13, 2019 |
Its about time.. Massive house to house, open street campaigns/rally for awareness is needed here.A lot of people need orientation on this. Imagine a typical Nigeria not believing that waste from the vehicle/streets can be taken home or properly disposed in d right manner than throwing it out through the window.We have seen people using the drains and canals as dump stes, shop owners sweeping directly into their front gutters.Homes, markets, streets,motor parks,bus stops etc are so filthy I mean the whole episode is appalling. Government should go tough on this. Appropriate laws should be made to sanction/prosecute defaulters.The only way we can come out of this! |

Cantonese:so throwing your gala wrap on the road or out of a vehicle after eating is cleaner than keeping it until you see a trash can you can toss it in? We are talking about what you can do to make your environment cleaner and you are calling the government. Is it the government that tosses out plastic soft drink bottles into gutters? Your case is even worse than I initially thought. You are littering the roads with your trash and littering Nairaland with your stupidity. |
