LAWMA closes markets over indiscriminate waste disposal

The Lagos State Waste Management Agency (LAWMA) has shut down the Oyingbo and Alayabiagba markets in the state over indiscriminate waste disposal.

Tokunbo Wahab, the commissioner of environment, made this known on Monday via his X handle.

“Following a series of unheeded warnings to markets in Lagos to shun filth and embrace proper environmental hygiene, @Lawma_gov has sealed Oyingbo and Alayabiagba Markets,” Mr Wahab posted.
