 LAWMA FABRICATES WASTE BINS FOR EKITI STATE


… Extends Partnership Offer to Other States at Affordable Rates


The Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) has begun fabricating waste bins for Ekiti State in a partnership aimed at tackling a myriad of waste management and environmental challenges. 


Managing Director/CEO of LAWMA, Dr. Muyiwa Gbadegesin, who disclosed this in his office on Tuesday, noted that LAWMA remained committed to ensuring proper waste management practices, within and outside the State, adding that Lagos State was willing to support and partner with other States in all areas of waste management.


He said, "I am happy to announce the partnership between LAWMA and Ekiti State Government, which will see us fabricate their waste bins at a reasonable cost. By fabricating waste bins in-house, we gain greater control over quality, production speed, and ultimately, cost-effectiveness”.


“This allows us to not only ensure a steady supply of bins for Lagos, but also help us to extend our support to other states like Ekiti, which is currently a prime beneficiary of this initiative. LAWMA has assisted some other States before now and we are willing to do more".


Gbadegesin averred that the partnership with Ekiti State shows LAWMA's proactive approach to environmental issues, adding that the Ekiti project would serve as a pilot programme, paving the way for similar partnerships with other states. 


"We believe that effective waste management is not just a Lagos issue, but a national concern. LAWMA's door is open to any state seeking our assistance. We are offering our expertise to provide technical support, training and even manpower, to help other states develop and implement efficient waste management systems", he said.


The LAWMA boss noted that the Authority’s Engineering Department, known for its ingenuity and resourcefulness, has developed a robust and efficient waste bin fabrication process, adding that the department utilised locally sourced materials to produce durable bins, for diverse waste management needs.


“LAWMA's in-house bin fabrication initiative offers several advantages beyond cost-effectiveness and quality control. It fosters skill development and job creation within the agency, promotes local content utilisation, and reduces reliance on imports. Hence, other states who are interested can get the bins at affordable rates”, he stated.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the uni...
