 RE: MISLEADING CLAIMS REGARDING EXTORTION OF MOTORISTS BY LAGOS STATE TASKFORCE – YET-TO-BE-IDENTIFIED SECURITY OPERATIVES: ANOTHER CASE OF MISTAKEN IDENTITY The Lagos State Taskforce wishes to address a misleading narrative circulating on social media, particularly in a viral video shared by protesters and concerned groups who recently demonstrated at the Lagos State House of Assembly. The protest was in response to the alleged extortion of motorists by security operatives, yet to be identified, who are not officials of the Lagos State Environmental and Special Offences Unit.

Christmas: Despite hardship, food waste at festive period alarming in Nigeria – Environmentalist, David

He explained that food waste ends up in landfills and produces much methane, a more potent greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide, CO2.

David urged Nigerians to consider the energy and natural resources expended in processing, transporting, storing, and cooking food.

“Despite hardship, food waste at festivities is very alarming at Christmas, as many of the foods prepared will never be eaten,” he said.
