Ogun State - Sanitation Law: Ogun Enforces Compliance

[OgunState]

 

Ogun State Government is determined to enforce strict compliance with its monthly environmental sanitation law. The State Governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, disclosed this yesterday at Sagamu while monitoring the state of compliance with the February environmental sanitation. He said the environmental sanitation law was made in good faith, "to ensure we all live in a clean and safe environment."     "A healthy people is a wealthy people. We can prevent a lot of diseases when we live in a clean environment. When we spend less on health issues we have more to spend on other social amenities all for the benefit of our people," Amosun said.     On the fate of commuters arrested at Sagamu by law enforcement agents for breaking the sanitation law, Amosun called for their immediate prosecution in order to serve as a deterrent to others. While noting that  the setting up of Mobile Courts would also help the enforcement drive, he observed that the state government would continue its enlightenement campaign "until voluntary compliance permeates the nooks and crannies of the State".
