He said the action was needed to check illegal sand filling, compounding, flooding and wrongly located boreholes causing septic and sewage waters to sip back into boreholes to endanger citizens health.

Runsewe noted that green construction was the antidote needed for resolving all environmental issues and should be encouraged and popularised in Lagos and across Nigeria.

He said lack of sustainability in construction was responsible for all the infractions that affecting green construction, hence the need for government’s strict regulation and private sector support.
