Ogun State Government has warned operators of industrial
machines which emit gaseous effluence thereby polluting the atmosphere
to take steps necessary to prevent the emissions from putting the lives
of residents in danger.
The warning is reportedly issued by the state commissioner for environment, Dr. Lanre Tejuoso, during an inspection to Lafarge Cement, Sagamu and African Foundries Limited, Ogijo. According to the commissioner, the emission generates global negative effects on air and is having adverse effects on the environment.
Dr. Tejuoso explained that if necessary steps were not taken to
address the situation, government would be left with no choice other
than sealing up such companies. “This visit is an emergency situation arising from the complaints of
the people living around these companies on their unprofessional way of
releasing gaseous emission in to the air which has constituted a serious
threat to the health of our people”, Tejuoso stated.
