Lagos rejects reports of resumption of monthly sanitation exercise

The Lagos state government has dismissed reports of the reintroduction of monthly environmental sanitation exercises in the state.

A report emerged on social media recently that the government has decided to revive the exercise introduced by the military regime in the early 80s following a cholera outbreak in the state.

However, the state Commissioner for Environment, Adetokunbo Wahab, in a statement on Wednesday, said there would be no movement restrictions during the last Saturday of every month in the state.

He considered the claims to be the work of evil-minded people who wanted to cause chaos in the country.

Wahab urged Lagos residents to ignore the reports and continue with their legitimate businesses.
