Lagos reopens Oko-Oba abattoir.
The Lagos State Government has ordered the immediate reopening of the Oko-Oba Abattoir in the Agege area following the operators’ compliance with sanitation and hygiene regulations.
The facility was shut on June 19 over what the government described as environmental violations and inappropriate operational practices.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday, the Commissioner for the Environment and Water Resources, Tokunbo Wahab, said the operators had “substantially complied with the minimum benchmark for the operations of abattoirs in the state, which was flagrantly flouted initially, necessitating the closure.”
He added that, as part of the conditions for reopening, officials from the ministry would now conduct monthly inspections of the abattoir.
