I Have Not Been Appointed As LAWMA MD – Sanuth Says

Dr. Sanuth, Director of Sanitation and Services Department (SSD), Ministry of The Environment and Water Resources, has refuted reports making round on social media regarding his alleged appointment as the new Managing Director of the Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA).

​In an official disclaimer, Dr. Sanuth described the reports as entirely baseless, and unfounded.

“I have become aware of news circulating that I have been appointed Managing Director (MD) of LAWMA.

“I wish to state categorically that this information is false and unfounded.

“I have not been appointed to that position, and I urge everyone to disregard the rumour and refrain from circulating unverified information,” Dr Sanuth stated.

​While appreciating colleagues and members of the public who reached out with goodwill messages, he stressed the critical need for verifying information through official channels before sharing news with the public.

​”I appreciate the goodwill and confidence of those who may have shared or reacted to the news, but it is important that facts are established before information is disseminated,” he added.
