Lagos Arrests 14 For Open Defecation, Highway Crossing (Video)

Fourteen persons have been arrested by the Lagos State Environmental Sanitation Corps in Berger, for violating environmental laws.

The offenders were caught crossing the highway without using pedestrian bridges and engaging in open defecation.

This was disclosed by the state’s Commissioner for Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab, in a post on X.com on Thursday.

The operation is part of the state government’s efforts to maintain a clean and orderly environment in line with its “Zero Tolerance” policy.

Wahab wrote, “Fourteen individuals were arrested at Berger last night for open defecation, open urination, and not using the pedestrian bridge.”
