Residents of the Para community in the Oke-Aro area of Ogun State have expressed concerns over the danger a dumpsite located in the area posed to their health. Our correspondent who visited the area on Monday observed that the dumpsite is located by a canal beside a filling station along the major road. The community’s leader, Samson Gbadamosi, told our correspondent that residents have been enduring the menace posed by the dumpsite for over 20 years. “I want the government to remove this dumpsite or relocate it inside because it’s too much,” Gbadamosi said. Most of us have children that refuse to visit us because of this dumpsite, please help us,” Gbamiboye lamented.
