My people, hear am! Lagos state dey serious for this waste matter wey don turn wahala for area. Dem don catch one 48-year-old man wey no fit control im waste, for illegal dumping wahala. Na Tokunbo Wahab, di commissioner for Environment and Water Resources, come tell us dis one for him X account.
According to di statement, dem don carry di man go Oshodi headquarters for prosecution. E no go do abeg-ameb for Lagos anymore! Dis kind illegal refuse dump no dey only spoil our environment but e dey also pose serious risk to public health.
The government don talk say dem get zero tolerance for people wey dey mess up di environment. Wetin dem dey do for all this wahala be say dem dey catch dem and dey put dem for jail or fine dem plenty money. Na so dem dey try keep Lagos clean to avoid serious public health issues.
No be only dat man wey dem catch; last week, dem don also arrest three people wey dey dump waste for Ikotun–Igando Road. Dem catch dem early-morning for surveillance operation wey LAWMA do. Di three suspects, na Muosolu Ogochukwu wey be woman, Adedigba Kazeem, and Isaac Monday, all don face di Oshodi Mobile Court. E no good make dem dey scatter our city like dis!
Dem also don seal one restaurant wey dey discharge untreated wastewater for Victoria Island. Wahab talk say di restaurant boss don dey inside trouble now. E no dey funny at all! E come dey clear say di government no dey play with environmental issues anymore. If you sabi say you dey dump waste careless way, dem go arrest you!
Na wah o! E fit look small, but di impact wey dis illegal dumping dey cause for Lagos no dey small. E dey affect drainage systems and e fit lead to flooding. All dem early-morning operations na to make sure say environment no dey suffer because some people no sabi control waste.
Wahab come dey urge Lagosians to follow dem rules, make dem no dey throw waste anyhow. Dis enforcement wahala go continue, and if you dey do anyhow, na you go see anyhow. Make we join hands keep Lagos clean make e fit shine like di original city wey e be!
