The Lagos State Wastewater Management Office has closed down the administrative and kitchen complex of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) Jesus Sanctuary in Masha, Surulere, citing alleged indiscriminate discharge of wastewater into the environment.

This development was made known via a post on the X handle of the Lagos Commissioner, Ministry of the Environment and Water Resources, on Saturday, April 20.

It reads: “Following a public complaint received from concerned residents, the Lagos State Wastewater Management Office #lswmomedia in enforcing the provisions of the Environmental Management and Protection Law 2017, sealed off the administrative and kitchen complex of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) Jesus Sanctuary, Masha, Surulere, Lagos for indiscriminate discharge of wastewater into the environment.

“Illegal discharge of wastewater into the environment endangers the lives of citizens as it leads to soil pollution and groundwater contamination; causing waterborne diseases such as cholera, dysentery, and diarrhoea.

“The Lagos State Wastewater Management Office encourages all Lagosians to desist from such acts and report all illegal activities leading to the pollution of the environment.”

The Lagos State Wastewater Management Office is a parastatal of the Ministry of the Environment and Water Resources aimed at protecting the environment from wastewater mismanagement in Lagos State.
