Governor Ambode Abolishes Monthly Environmental Sanitation in Lagos.


Every last Saturday of each month is dedicated to a mandatory clean up of Lagos; the nation’ s commercial capital and wannabe mega city .

Shops and businesses are often shuttered from 7 am to 10 am and vehicular movement ceases for the period .

Not any more, says Lagos governor Akinwunmi Ambode .

A statement made available by the state Commissioner for the Environment , Babatunde Adejare , during the ministry ’s monthly media chat in Lagos on Thursday , has said the monthly exercise will be jettisoned because of its cost to the state ’s economy .

The commissioner disclosed that the state governor Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode has decided that the state cannot afford to shut down a mega city like Lagos for a period of 3 hours.

Mr. Adejare noted that environmental sanitation should rather be a daily exercise and charged residents to make it a way of life .

The commissioner also vowed that the state will shut down markets violating the state ’ s environmental laws .

Ijakumo Movie Review

  Whatever this movie was set to give, it didn't give.  Even the stripping is not giving. Why is the Sharon girl sex talking like she is doing spoken words???  I liked the babe in "Listening Ears", but I feel she is not 'mature' enough theatrically for this role. Wait, what I noticed was that Toyin and her crew didn't know there was a girl who looks like the Sharon girl in his church. A very crazy error that no director should make. If they had come in with this, maybe the finding out they were twin bla BLA BLA suspense would suspense well. But as the director or script writer were very myopic, the twin shii didn't hold water.

The only thing that thrilled me was Kunle Remi and his lines. O mard gan. 🤣🤣🤣 "Emi mimo ni kin gbenu sohun". 🤣🤣🤣 "So, idi Uganda lo Fe baye mi j...

It has been a long time tradition in Swaziland and not the first time this controversial issue is making it into the news. Although, many consider this barbaric and backward, it’s a tradition the people willingly embrace as the aim is to help King Mswati choose a wife. As part of Swazi custom and norms, that time of the year has come, when the King chooses his bride and again, he has reportedly tested some of the volunteered girls’ virginity before choosing a wife for himself. Thousands of pretty virgins’ were seen in this year’s edition dancing topless for King Mswati III, on what is called the Reed Dance ceremony, also known as Umhlanga), hoping to be his next wife. The Reed Dance ceremony is an annual Swazi and Zulu tradition hel...
