Abstract
Background: Ogun State, Nigeria, a rapidly growing industrial and commercial hub, faces significant challenges in waste management and pollution control due to urbanization and industrial expansion. Objective: To Access current state, identify key obstacles hindering effective waste management and pollution control in Ogun State Nigeria. To explore innovative strategies and technologies for improving waste management practices. To offer policy recommendations for sustainable environmental management. Methods: A mixed-methods approach was utilized, combining qualitative and quantitative data. Data collection included surveys and interviews with stakeholders like government officials, environmental experts, and community members. Field observations of waste management facilities and pollution control measures were conducted, alongside a literature review of existing studies, reports, and policy documents. Results: Current Practices: Ogun State has implemented community clean-up programs on waste disposal. However, issues such as open dumping and burning of waste persist, contributing to environmental pollution. Challenges: Key challenges include insufficient infrastructure for waste collection and disposal, low public awareness and participation, financial constraints, and a lack of advanced recycling and waste processing technologies. Innovative Strategies: Promising solutions identified include the development of waste-to-energy plants, the use of biodegradable materials, community-based recycling programs, and the application of digital technologies for waste tracking and management. Policy Recommendations: Recommendations include enhancing regulatory frameworks, increasing investment in waste management infrastructure, fostering public-private partnerships, and integrating environmental education into school curricula.
