Lagos, Nigeria – The Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, alongside the State Executive Council, has approved the recruitment of 1,400 additional officers into the Lagos State Environmental Sanitation Corps (LAGESC/KAI).

The expansion is part of a strategic effort to strengthen enforcement and support the Ministry of the Environment and Water Resources in maintaining cleaner, safer, and more orderly public spaces throughout the state.

The new officers are expected to enhance the Corps’ capacity to monitor compliance with environmental regulations, prevent indiscriminate waste dumping, discourage street trading in restricted zones, and ensure proper waste management practices across all communities in Lagos.

Governor Sanwo-Olu highlighted that this move reinforces the administration’s commitment to a #CleanerLagos and #GreaterLagos, prioritizing public health, safety, and environmental sustainability for all residents.
