Eight Arraigned for Public Urination as KAI Intensifies Sanitation Crackdown in Yaba

The Lagos Environmental Sanitation Corps, popularly known as KAI, has arrested and arraigned eight individuals for public urination and causing a breach of peace in the Yaba area of the state.

The crackdown, part of ongoing efforts to enforce environmental laws and uphold public hygiene, led to the suspects being brought before Magistrate Oshikoya at the Special Offences (Mobile) Court in Oshodi, where they were each sentenced to one month in jail.

Speaking on the operation, Corps Marshal, Retired Major Olaniyi Olatunbosun Cole, said the agency has intensified daily surveillance to combat public indecency, particularly open urination and defecation, which remain pressing sanitation issues across the state.

“As the premier enforcement agency in Lagos, we will not allow acts of public indecency to go unchecked. This judgment serves as a strong deterrent,” Cole stated.

He further warned street traders to desist from displaying wares on road medians, lay-bys, and kerbs, emphasizing that such practices are illegal and environmentally disruptive.

The Corps reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining a cleaner and healthier Lagos and urged residents to support government initiatives by adhering to public hygiene regulations.
