 Lagos Assembly Calls for More Public Toilets to Tackle Open Defecation


The Lagos State House of Assembly has raised concerns over the widespread issue of open defecation and urged the state government to construct more public toilets to curb the practice.


During a plenary session, lawmakers condemned the increasing prevalence of open defecation, particularly in areas such as Oshodi, Mile 2, and Agege.


The Assembly called on Local Government Areas (LGAs) and Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs) to collaborate with private organizations in building adequate public toilet facilities and intensifying awareness campaigns against open defecation.


Stephen Ogundipe, representing Oshodi I, emphasized that Lagos, as a smart city, must take decisive action to improve sanitation and environmental sustainability.


Deputy Speaker Mojeed Fatai reiterated the responsibility of LGAs and LCDAs in providing public toilets, stating that such facilities would enhance public hygiene and reduce open defecation across the state.


Gbolahan Yishawu questioned the effectiveness of existing government efforts and urged the state to prioritize the construction of public toilets at strategic locations, suggesting that public-private partnerships could be instrumental in addressing the issue.


Aro Moshood highlighted the dangers of open defecation in riverine areas, warning that it contaminates water bodies and poses risks to both public health and marine life. He called for collective action from all stakeholders to improve sanitation standards in Lagos.
