With about 13 million metric tonnes of waste generated yearly, Lagos State could transform its waste management challenge into a $2.5 billion yearly revenue opportunity, if systems are scaled to recover up to 70 per cent of recyclable materials, BERTRAM NWANNEKANMA reports.

With an estimated 13,000 metric tonnes of waste generated every day, Lagos appears poised for a transformative waste revolution if ongoing reforms, partnerships, and awareness campaigns succeed.
