Lagos Govt seals Viju for ‘failing to obtain the required permit to work’

Lagos State Water Regulatory Commission (LASWARCO) has sealed Viju Industries Nigeria Limited.

The company is situated at Awose Close, on Awosika Avenue, off Sapara Street, off Oba Akran Road in Ikeja Industrial Estate.

Owoturo explained that it was sanctioned because the management failed to obtain the required permit to use a Water Treatment Plant.

The official stated that the offence was “among other violations” which were undisclosed.

“LASWARCO is a Lagos State Regulatory Agency empowered by Law to enforce compliance.

“The Commission will not watch companies operate illegally without obtaining all necessary documents to operate for the safety of citizens”, he said.
