Lagos residents have been suffering for four months due to refuse heaps persisting on road medians, despite the Lagos State Waste Management Authority's (LAWMA) promise to address the issue. In Ejigbo and Idimu, heaps of waste have accumulated on the median linking the two areas, remaining unattended despite multiple complaints.
Our correspondent observed the heaps on Sunday, noting their presence for the fourth month since being dumped in May.

The situation has been ongoing for over six months, with the Lagos State government also intervening without resolving the persistent problem.
