 LAWMA URGES DILIGENCE IN MEDIA REPORTING AS IT CLARIFIES OPERATIONAL REALITIES The Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) has urged media organisations to exercise diligence and contextual accuracy in reporting on waste management operations as it clarifies the operational framework guiding solid waste collection and disposal across Lagos State. The Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of LAWMA, Dr. Muyiwa Gbadegesin stated this on Friday while responding to recent media reports on waste evacuation challenges in parts of the state. He explained that routine household waste collection was executed by licensed Private Sector Participant (PSP) operators under strict regulatory supervision and performance monitoring, contrary to assertions that LAWMA was directly responsible for carting away municipal solid waste from households. “LAWMA enforces defined service benchmarks and maintenance standards while activating targeted interventions wherever performance gaps are identified....

 Abia State to Establish Safety Commission for Homes, Offices, Markets and Industries – Governor Otti


Abia State Governor Dr Alex Otti has announced that his administration will establish the Abia State Safety Commission to enforce and regulate safety standards across homes, offices, markets and industrial premises throughout the state.


The governor disclosed this on Friday when he received members of the House of Representatives Committee on Safety Standards and Regulations, led by its Chairman, Hon. David Idris Zakarias.


Governor Otti revealed that the proposal to set up the commission had already received approval from the State Executive Council and is now awaiting legislative action by the Abia State House of Assembly for enactment and full implementation.


He emphasised that creating the commission would not be enough without continuous public education and reorientation to build safety consciousness among residents. Such efforts, he said, are vital to prevent avoidable disasters and protect lives and property.


“In some markets, you see dark-line electrical wires and combustible materials kept unsafely. We must continue to educate our people and ensure fire extinguishers are available,” Governor Otti stated.


The governor pledged that his administration would ensure the safety policy initiative is properly legislated and effectively executed.


Earlier, the committee chairman, Hon. David Idris Zakarias, noted that Lagos State is currently the only state in Nigeria with an operational Safety Commission. He expressed regret that widespread non-compliance with safety standards continues to claim lives and destroy businesses across the country.
