Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun has urged industries to embrace circular economy principles, saying the approach can reduce waste, recover resources and improve efficiency. The available report gives no details of specific regulations, funding measures or deadlines, but places resource recovery at the centre of the governor’s appeal to businesses.

Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun has urged industries operating in the state to adopt circular economy principles as a way of reducing waste and using resources more efficiently. The governor’s appeal focuses on changing how businesses manage materials and waste. Under a circular economy approach, resources are recovered and reused rather than discarded after a single cycle of production or consumption.

According to the source material, Abiodun said adopting the principles could help industries reduce waste, recover resources and improve efficiency. The report does not identify particular sectors or companies that were addressed, nor does it set out any new government requirement. It also provides no details of financial incentives, enforcement measures or targets for waste reduction.

The available information instead describes the governor’s comments as an encouragement to industry to incorporate circular practices into its operations. The call places waste management and resource recovery within a broader efficiency agenda for Ogun’s industrial sector. Punch Nigeria, the source of the report, did not provide further details in the supplied material about how the state government plans to support implementation or measure progress.
