Mushin Begins 10-Day Ward-by-Ward Waste Evacuation Exercise

The Mushin Local Government Council has scheduled a 10-day refuse evacuation exercise across its 10 wards as part of efforts to address waste accumulation and improve environmental sanitation.

The exercise, announced by the Executive Chairman, Hon. Tunbosun Haruna Aruwe, will commence on Monday, September 21, 2026, with Ward E, before moving to other wards according to the council’s timetable.

The initiative, tagged “Keep Lagos Clean, Keep Mushin Clean,” is designed to improve public hygiene and promote a healthier environment for residents.

Under the schedule, evacuation teams will move through Wards E, F, J, G, B, A, C, D, H and I between September 21 and October 2, with Sunday breaks included in the programme.

The council urged residents to properly package their refuse and make it accessible to evacuation teams during the designated collection periods.

It also called for residents’ cooperation, stressing that maintaining a clean environment requires collective responsibility from both the government and the community.
