OGWAMA Closes Ijebu Imushin Market Over Indiscriminate Waste Dumping

Ogun State Waste Management Authority has shut Ijebu Imushin market in Ijebu East Local Government for indiscriminate dumping of refuse and a filthy environment. Traders and market leaders ignored repeated warnings to keep the area clean. OGWAMA cleaned up the site with mechanical evacuation and provided a Roll-on-Roll-Off bin for proper waste disposal. Despite these measures and a designated private service provider, many traders still dump garbage around the market. The market will remain closed until traders clear all waste and consistently use the bin. Authorities warn that continued neglect endangers public health by attracting disease-carrying flies and contaminating produce.
