From bush to toilet: Relief for Oyo villagers after 183 years of open defecation

Jago villagers in Oyo State are delighted that after 183 years of existence, they now have a dignified means of defecation through the installation of Sato Pan toilets but Olufon village does not have any toilet. However, a handful of Jago villagers with toilets struggle to keep up with the monthly repayment of the installation costs they received as loan, writes GRACE EDEMA.

Adeola Rasaki, 17, moved swiftly into a bush near her hut to defecate before going to school that early Wednesday morning in October.

Rasaki, who lives in Olufon village, is a Senior Secondary One student at Jago Secondary School, located in a nearby village called Jago in the Ona-Ara Local Government Area of Oyo State.

As soon as she found a safe place to relieve herself, Rasaki suddenly saw a snake on that spot. Sensing the presence of a human, the reptile quietly crawled away. However, Rasaki immediately lost the urge to relieve herself.

Coincidentally, later that day, our correspondent visited Jago village where Rasaki’s school is located, and she narrated her experience from that morning.

However, she was able to defecate safely and comfortably in a Sato Pan Toilet, which was recently constructed in her friend’s house in Jago village.

Rasaki, who was among the cultural troupe singing and dancing to welcome some United Nations Children’s Fund representatives visiting the village to celebrate the installation of Sato Pan toilets, looked sad despite the festivities.

Her near-death experience is common among residents of the Ona-Ara Local Government Area, Oyo State, where Olufon and Jago are part of the villages.

A young tailor, Alao Adisa, in Olufon village, sitting in a ramshackle shed, told our correspondent that he had never seen a toilet in his 35 years of existence.

“We don’t have toilets here at all. We always have to defecate in the bushes. We hope the government will remember us one day and fund toilets for us or provide a public toilet where we can go. All my friends and relatives who got the Sato pan in Jago Village are struggling to pay for it. If the government could provide us with toilets, it would be a great help.”

Meanwhile, The PUNCH gathered that there had been a cholera outbreak in the community due to open defecation. There were also many stories of people being bitten by snakes and others falling into wells and ditches while trying to defecate openly in bushes or spaces around them.

Although the crowd danced rhythmically to the cultural songs sung by Rasaki and her mates from Jago Secondary School, located directly opposite the village head’s house, the reality of their inability to repay the loan they took from a microfinance bank for the construction of the toilets was apparent upon closer observation.

For these villagers, constructing the Sato Pan toilets was the first dignified means of defecation, marking an end to open defecation and its associated health implications.

The village head, also known as Baale, Chief Olusegun Oparinde, revealed that Jago Village, established in 1840, had its first decent toilet in 2023.

A Sato Pan toilet consists of a pan with a base and a comfortable sitting part attached to a slightly raised concrete platform made of building blocks. The ones installed in some houses in Jago are blue, with a V-shaped opening and a cover at the narrow end to guard against smell.

A Sato Pan was constructed at the cost of N70,000 each as of October 2023, both for the purchase of the pan and installation.

Being peasant farmers and petty traders, they all complained about their inability to meet their debts.

Looking dejected in her hut in Jago Village, Agnes Faju said, “Yes, we now have the toilet, but paying for it is the problem. I am 58 years old. I sell locust beans and some little things, and from there, I buy food for myself and the children living with me. I called a family member in Lagos who only gave me N5,000. I still owe N65,000. Is there any way the government can help us? Please tell the government to assist us in paying and provide toilets for other houses.”

Jago before Sato Pan toilet

Jago village, a sleepy community about an hour’s drive from Ibadan city, is home to peasant farmers and petty traders.

In the absence of proper toilets, Jago villagers resorted to ‘short put’, local parlance for open defecation. If they did not go into the bush to answer the call of nature, they defecated in nylon bags or paper and threw them into the bush.

🤣🤣🤣 pained low inferior ipob loser…the pain must be so severe, you had to take time to write an epistle🤣🤣

Who get time read rubbish 🤣🤣🤣 the bottom line is that, you are shameless and have no bargaining power that’s why no one cares what happens in your shithole 🤣🤣

You are inconsequential in the scheme of things and you will continue to beg for freedom from your Yoruba/Hausa slave master🤣🤣 pained ipob loser🤣🤣

Keep crying and wailing while you write another load of jargons while I thrash them in the dust bin which they belong…cursed Osu migrant🤣🤣

Idiat so the places I mentioned are not popular? How come I know those places if I have not been there🤣🤣

Keep living in denial, I left that shit hole in 2018 and never to return there again, just with fond memories of all the cheap ibos whores I have smashed so still even call me till date, that they want to come to obodo ragos🤣🤣

Typical Yaribanza monkey, cho cho cho! You go talk talk talk talk and end up landing no point, like a typical Yaribanza agbero you go threaten, shout and break bottle but if fight start na Ben Johnson next

Hollow brained Yorubastardd, Igbos don't have to have any bargaining power in a worthless entity like Nigeria that isn't sustainable to anybody. Igbos have had to stoop low to conquer by surviving a brutal Civil war and rebuilding the East without little or no government handouts, that's why the East is the most urbanized region today down to the rural areas, thats why Igbos now have industrialized their regions into a manufacturing and production hub- innoson, Coscharis, Emzor, Onitsha main market, Ariaria market, Seplat etc are various industries all built by Igbos without no FG help.

Igbos slaves to Yaribanzas and Hausas? how? LMFAOOO Ogbeni Shamudeen, it's only in your wildest Yaribanza filth infested imaginations that an Igbo man will be a slave to the Yaribanzas or the North. Leave IGR noise aside, where can you really measure up to the Igbos? On an individual wealth basis una no reach, education level una no dey see our back again based on stats, like what indices are you currently better than Igbos? Na your parents dey shout "Ebi n pawa" pass any other tribe today despite your brother in power, it's Yaribanzas that are queuing up in Lagos for satchets of garri and loafs of agege bread like peasants from the bubonic plague...abi is it the daily occurrences of ritual killings and organ harvesting going on in your overrated region? Take out Lagos which is a cosmopolitan entity built by all Nigerians and years of Federal govt patronage as a former capital of Nigeria, wetin una get to brag over Igbos? Dirtiness?

I can at least respect the North more cause they are silent conquerors, they conquered ilorin and made the Yaribanzas there slaves. The Northerners can have my respect on that note

Now you've gone from claiming you are in Owerri with your current location to you left Owerri a long time ago, just a useless lying ass Yaribanza pig. Useless!

SonOfDSoil01:
🤣🤣🤣I like how I’m making this ipob zombies cry, they all crawling out of there rat holes🤣🤣

I didn’t even bother to read your long gibberish that belongs to the dust bin🤣🤣 but I just glance through the part you think I’m lying about my stay in owerri

You must really think everyone is a wretch like boy your girls are cheap prostitute, my axis was in new owerri, along owerri/port harcourt road to world bank axis, reach control🤣🤣

I samply almost all the cheap olosho girls that were just madly in love with a Lagos Yoruba boy , just because they want to go to obodo ragos🤣

The only industry that thrives there is hotel and olosho business 🤣🤣 I know you pained knowing that I cast your secret with your unproductive barren region, that’s why the trend of migration is from east to west🤣🤣

No one travels to ibo land to invest except ibos🤣🤣 abeg cry more, your tears are delicious 🤣🤣

Yaribaa biTch boy me cry? It's my off day so I'm in a good mood to toy around with a Yaribamajiri miscreant today before I go get my d**k sucked by my Yoruba queen (notice how I didn't denigrate my woman by using Yaribaa in describing her 🙃).

There are oloshos in Igboland, that's not a special phenomenon, but if we go by known baby mama's in Nigeria, internet oloshos, porn actresses and fake IG models that frequent Allen avenue and popular clubs in Lekki, for one Chiamaka you see you must ten Lolade's. This isn't cap...i fit drop one hangout spot in Lekki for you and you can confirm yourself. All the known oloshos there are Yaribaa girls- mostly from Ondo and Ekiti states as well.

Imo state boasts of a GDP 3x bigger than Ondo, Osun, Ekiti and Oyo state combined. Imo state sits on a huge gas deposit, Imo state was ranked as the most literate state in the 2022-2023 academic index, Imo girls are the most beautiful in Nigeria-they produced the most beauty pageants in Nigeria, Imo state has the highest numbers of doctors in Nigeria (based on stats from statisense) etc. Its not only hotels Imo is known for you Amotekun miscreant from Ogbomoso .

You claim you're in " new owerri, along owerri/port harcourt road to world bank axis", name the popular spot in that place, give me a common area so I can confirm your location? Better still you can give me a location and date make we meet. Make Ayelala catch you today

🤣[s]🤣🤣another pained crying baby factory product….pls remind me the tribe that dominates that trade again🤣🤣🤣

Shameless pig, you better take a trip to all brothels across this country and see the shamelessness of your women🤣🤣

I served in owerri and I can tell you for free, your women are cheap prostitues, I don’t even have to pay them, the fact that I’m a Yoruba boy from Lagos already gave me an edge

Just the promise of taking them to obodo ragos, got them wet🤣🤣 no wonder why Yoruba men are the price, your women now marry Yoruba men like there life depends on it🤣🤣

I even Dey with one now sef chikiama she told me she has always wanted to get Married to a Yoruba man and her father will reject her if she ever brought an Okoro savage home🤣🤣
[/s]

Blah blah blah blah, typical Yaribanza undiluted gutter rubbish. Of course its only a sex-starved and depraved Yaribaa boy with a noodle d**k like yourself will concoct tales of fantasies and anecdotes in your tiny beta male imaginations that you will never fulfill, imagination wan wound the werey . Who dash a broke azz Ramoni Taofeek from Ikorodu like you money to enter Owerri wey odogwus dey bubble? except those few Lagos born and raised Igbo girls that are open to marrying Yaribaa men, not a single Igbo girl raised and bred in the East will ever imagine such rubbish; infact the ones in the East will spit and curse you for suggesting marriage or relationship with a mere Yaribaa boy. Omo alata sef dey fantasize about Chiamaka! with that your dirty takoko head and unkempt existence with body odor oozing everywhere 😭😂😂😂😂.

Ogbeni geddifok! Of course it's only prostitutes your likes will patronize, you have a small d**k and no decent woman will settle for a loser so na olosho be your only option, you get choice before ni? . You're content knacking an Igbo boys sloppy seconds, the low tier girls wey nobody dey gree marry for Igboland again, those are the types Yaribaa simp for, they beg and beg and promise the worst of our women heaven and earth just to get inside their pants, no wahala we don't settle for olosho! you can have our leftovers!

Meanwhile on a good weekend, enter Igbo dominated areas and nightclubs in Lagos like FESTAC, Ajah, Okota etc and see how rich Igbo boys literally pimpp out your women like broadway sluts, you know those IG baddies with big nyansh and nose-rings- (set awon slay queens mostly from Ondo and Ekiti), go see what Igbo boys there are doing to your women, omo you go cry reach house . Its so bad that yoruba ronu miscreants even opened a space last week on X and spent over 5 hours ranting and grunting over how Igbo boys are getting Yaribaa girls pregnant in astronomical numbers all over Lagos without claiming their babies, that's because we fucck and dump your women like the unmarriagable trash that they are, why your men marry our leftovers in Lagos cause Igbo women even the worst ones ARE THE PRIZE! that's why Igbo women are the most sought after among men from other tribes in Nigeria for marriage (check the number of Yoruba top socialites and men from other tribes including governors, senators etc) that are married to Igbo women. Levels bro, nobody wants a Yaribaa woman that will do bend-down select knacking positions for every Tunde, Azeez, Moshood and Chukwudi she sees

Meanwhile I dey Owerri now, which part of Owerri you dey? Na Ogun go kill your entire generation if you don't show up, I'll PM you my location if e sure for you? Oniro oshi

LegendHero:
Lol the guy is very slow, no mind am.

You have to understand their tactics. What they do is derail discussion and try to use the strawman argument.

IMO wey no fit lace Ogun state shoe for industry, na em e dey compare with small Imo with just only hotel which are usually sole person just building one house and employing few staffs. Shey na that one you go compare with mega industries in Otta alone.

We dey talk of 2024 numbers, he go go dey bring far away 2017. SE used to generate revenue too then but they’ve been on a downward trend since IPOB saga and now they are economically disadvantaged, even more worse than NE at this point.

You mean this same Ogun state where a community just celebrated having a toilet for the first time? Ogun state with the most road networks in Nigeria?
