The Lagos State Government has announced that it will begin full enforcement of the ban on the usage and distribution of Styrofoam food containers on Monday.
Styrofoam found in shops will be seized and confiscated.
In January, the state government banned the use and distribution of Styrofoam and other single-use plastics across the state.
The decision was reached following the menace that single-use plastics especially the non-biodegradable Styrofoam were causing on the environment, according to the government.
Stryfoam users were given a three-week grace period to end their use.
However, many stakeholders have faulted the decision of the state government, noting that the ban would negatively affect their business, some sold the items in covert ways.
Meanwhile, some food vendors in the state have resorted to the use of nylon bags in packing food for their customers.
