The Lagos State Water Corporation, LWC, has begun the installation of pre-paid meters in Lekki, Victoria Island and other parts of the state.
Other areas are: Victoria Island Annex, Surulere, Itire, Iwaya, Yaba/Ebute Metta, Magodo and Ikeja.
A statement from the management on Sunday said the move was in line with the Lagos State Government policy to ensure accurate and efficient billing of LWC customers.
“LWC staff, contractors and consultants are already on the field for sensitization, installation, and customer education on the metering scheme.
“Members of the public are hereby warned to desist from tampering with the water meters, as anybody caught in the act shall be prosecuted according to the existing Lagos State laws,” it said.
The body solicited support from the public, emphasizing that it was mandatory to install meters in all government properties.
