‘LAWMA & PSP OPERATORS ARE EXTORTING US’

The new rumor that is spreading like wildfire in Olodi-Apapa-Ajegunle community is that Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) and PSP operators are extorting the people of the community. The argument there is that Lagos State government is responsible for the finance of LAWMA in order to carry out its duties in the state. LAWMA is therefore responsible for the finance of the accredited PSP operators hired by them. Members of the public are therefore not supposed to pay any PSP official as it is being done in most part of the community.

It would be in the best interest of LAWMA to quickly address this issue by launching an awareness campaign on this subject matter in the community or in Lagos generally to avoid further embarrassment from the public.
