In a new development, Governor Ambode of Lagos State has cancelled the compulsory environmental sanitation of the last Saturday of every month held between the hours of 7am to 10am in Lagos
The Commissioner for Environment, Babatunde Adejare in the state made this known at the ministry’s monthly media chat in Lagos on Thursday.
Adejare said the exercise was scrapped due to the adverse economic consequences on the state.
He also added that Governor Akinwunmi Ambode found it detrimental to the state to shut down the mega city for 3 hours.
He then remarked that the environmental sanitation should be done daily rather than fixed for a specific day, once a month.
