On Friday, Lagos State Governor,
Akinwunmi Ambode unveiled a new
environmental management.
The initiative replaces the Kick Against
Indiscipline (KAI) with the Lagos
Environmental Sanitation Corps (LAGESC).
Speaking at the soft launch of the CLI held
at Agege Stadium, Governor Ambode who
was represented by the State’s Deputy
Governor, Mrs Idiat Adebule, said since the
inception of his administration, sanitation
had been given priority as it was important
for maintaining a secure and more
prosperous State.
According to him,
‘to roll back sanitation shortcomings
and accelerate seamless cleaning of
our environment, the Lagos mega-city
was in dire need of an enduring
solution that would match the
needed technology with the massive
investment required for its
attainment. “It is this void that the CLI
has come to fill by creating an
environment for the private sector to
harness international best practice in
the vital area of solid waste
management and consequently free
public funds for other beneficial
uses’.
