ADC's Gbadamosi Critiques Lagos Waste Management Efforts

Gbadamosi Babatunde, the Deputy Governorship Candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Lagos State, criticized Tokunbo Wahab, the Lagos State Commissioner for the Environment and Water Resources, over a video showing government officials clearing refuse. Gbadamosi questioned whether Wahab intended to personally remove waste from various locations in Lagos, highlighting the extensive rubbish accumulation in areas like Ikorodu, Epe, and Lagos Island.

He labeled the government's actions as “performative misgovernance” and accused the administration of intentionally allowing Lagos to be overwhelmed by refuse, stating, “you are determined to punish Lagosians with disease.” In response, Wahab dismissed Gbadamosi's criticisms, claiming he would not give him the attention he sought and accused him of failing to manage a small estate, alleging fraudulent actions regarding AMEN Estate.
