Some facilities were also sanctioned for not installing an effluent treatment plant, non-availability of the necessary permits relevant to their operations, and poor housekeeping, among others.

Director General of NESREA, Dr. Innocent Barikor has expressed displeasure over the non-compliance status of many facilities, warning that the trend was unhealthy for the health of the citizens and the environment.

“It is disheartening these errant facilities carried on their operations in a manner that endangered the environment despite notices of compliance concerns served on them as required by law.

“The agency would continue to enforce the provisions of the 35 National environmental regulations and would not fail at any time to impose appropriate penalties on violators.

Laws are made for the smooth running of the society and compliance with the laws enhances wholesome development. I encourage Nigerians to be true environmental vanguards by obeying the laws and reporting any environmental violations,” NESREA DG said.
