..reward for credible information leading to arrest of this culprit

The Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) has commenced a manhunt for a yet-to-be-identified individual caught on video illegally dumping refuse at the Alapere Link Bridge.

Lagos Eye News reports that the suspect, believed to be a repeat offender, was captured on camera by a LAWMA field officer on Monday, with support from a local trader.

The vehicle used in the act has been identified by its license plate number: Venza (LAGOS – AKD-171-JE). LAWMA officials suspect the individual may have been engaging in similar illegal activities for several months.

According to the agency, efforts are underway to trace the suspect using the vehicle’s registration details. LAWMA is also calling on members of the public to assist in identifying the individual.

“If you recognize the individual in this video or have any information that can lead to their identification and arrest, please contact LAWMA immediately via direct message or email at info@lawma.gov.ng,” the agency stated, assuring the anonymity of informants.

To further encourage public cooperation, LAWMA has announced a small reward for any credible information that results in the arrest of the suspect or other offenders involved in illegal waste disposal.

The agency emphasized the critical role of public support in holding environmental offenders accountable and achieving a cleaner, safer Lagos for all.
