Abstract
ABSTRACTThis paper is a rider to the reported high gamma radiation fields around certain ordinary waste sites in Lagos, Nigeria. Exposure groups in the vicinity of these sites are susceptible to radiation risks, among other possibilities of health and environmental hazards, as a result of the waste volumes. Urbanisation requires environment-conscious waste management, especially e-wastes. This study relates Nigeria’s sub-standard waste management to the wider world. There is need for an integrated solid waste management approach.
