Lefkosa and Gonyeli overwhelmed by fowl smell

Residents in Lefkosa woke up to a very bad smell on Monday which has also annoyed citizens.

The Lefkosa Municipality has said they are working hard to determine the source of the odor.

“We are trying to find the source, there is a fertilizer issue that comes up every year, we are investigating whether it is related to it, we suspect this situation,” NTM Director Fikri Özgüvenli said.

He added that "The source of the smell is not the municipality," explaining that in his first determinations, the smell is a situation that can be felt up to the Gönyeli round about.

He said many complaints were made to the municipality, and they are trying to find the source. It happens at similar times every year, but we cannot give a clear answer. An announcement will be made when a definitive determination is made," he said.

As it will be remembered, it was stated that the bad odor that came to the agenda in recent years, almost at the same time, was the smell of manure coming out of farms, which affected Lefkosia and its environs, especially the Yılmazköy, Alayköy and Gönyeli regions. As the bad smell becomes unbearable, Gönyeli and Lefkosia Municipality take action every year.
