Leading the rally, women's activist and leader of the Women Arise group, Dr. Joe Okei-Odumakin, said the resumption of schools without provision fpr running waters, sanitary items and renovation of school toilets is an invitation to a public epidemic.

Reiterating Dr. Odumakin's position, veteran Nollywood actor, Prince Jide Kosoko, said school toilets are an eyesore that put children at susceptible ends to disease infection.

All participants at the rally called on the Government to ensure proper renovation of school toilets and ensure provision of sanitary equipment before resumption is allowed.
