Mr Ololade Abraham, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the park made the appeal when he spoke with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos.
Abraham said that this challenge coupled with the incessant flooding that used to affect the park and its environs might lead the park into extinction.
“I need the state government’s support by providing a good location for the park from its present site.’’
According to him, the park may soon close down due to insufficient funds to run it and also stench oozing from the dumpsite closer to it.
He appealed to the Lagos State Government to save his park, stressing that workers employed there and their families would be negatively affected if the park should be closed.
