Oyo State Commissioner for Environment and Natural Resources, Rt. Hon. Kehinde Ayoola has said that the West Africa Energy, which operated under the name Solous MRF. 1 Ltd. has failed in its performance under the contract it signed with Oyo State Government.

The Commisoner while revealing the new development in his office on Saturday, said the government has revoked it’s contractual agreement with the company due to the fact that the company was found to be in material breach of the contractual terms.

The Commissioner cites instances that the State capital, Ibadan, has experienced unbearable heaps of refuse in the last four weeks, saying the company has not lived up to expectations in cleaning the city.

He said, Oyo State Government being the main employer of the contractor, has deemed it fit to relieve West Africa Energy of its duties, so as to ensure efficient waste management in the State.

Hon. Kehinde Ayoola thereby assured residents, that the State Government was taking holistic measures to ensure the State experiences a turn-around in the environmental sector, as well as, creating wealth from wastes.

He also revealed that the State Governor, Engr Seyi Makinde has appointed a Chairman for the Oyo State Waste Management Authority, in the person of Prince Seun Adelore, who will see to the day to day running of the disposal mechanism in the State, under the supervision of his office.

It would be recalled that Oyo State Government reached a partnership agreement with West Africa Energy in 2016, with the past administration in the State.
