Lagos State Government says it will decommission the Olusosun and Solous 3 dump sites within 18 months as part of a major overhaul of its waste management system. Commissioner for Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab, said new landfill sites in Badagry, Ikorodu and Epe will be built with strict environmental safeguards. He added that the move aligns with the state’s push toward modern, integrated waste management, with recycling and waste-to-energy initiatives reducing what ends up in landfills.
