The Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency (LASEPA) has taken action to enforce environmental regulations by sealing off several establishments across the state.
The agency targeted areas including Fagba, Iyana Ipaja, Ifako-Ijaiye, and Orile Agege, where multiple businesses violated various environmental laws.
This move aims to protect public health and ensure compliance with the state's environmental standards, as LASEPA intensifies efforts to curb practices detrimental to the environment.
Among the affected establishments were Chanelrose Lounge & Bar, Mama Juli Lounge & Bakery, Klub P-14 Hotel, Emmy Prince Hotel, Baltimat Industries Limited, Iju Ishaga City Hotel & Lounge, Chitec Aluminum and Safeland Hotel.
According to LASEPA, these businesses had previously been issued warnings but failed to rectify their environmental infractions.
The General Manager of LASEPA, Dr. Babatunde Ajayi, reiterated the agency’s firm stance on environmental compliance.
