Lagos State Government has sealed a residential estate located at No. 96B, Ladipo Omotesho Street, Lekki Phase 1, over repeated violations of environmental regulations.
The enforcement was carried out by officials of the Lagos State Wastewater Management office, LSWMO.
The operation which took place on Wednesday, January 7, 2026, followed several warnings issued to the residents for failing to comply with the Lagos State Environmental Management and Protection Law, as well as for allegedly obstructing officials of the agency in the discharge of their duties.
The development was confirmed in a statement released on Wednesday via the agency’s official X handle.
The LSWMO urged residents across the state to embrace proper wastewater disposal and hygiene practices in the interest of public health and environmental sustainability, warning that acts constituting environmental nuisance would attract sanctions and possible prosecution.
The agency also encouraged members of the public to report environmental violations.
