You can not draw a straight analogy between an institution of higher learning as UI and Lagos state in general...the demographic paints a complete contrasting picture.

Open defecation does not happen in UI, The App is workable there because it allows educated people with smart phones to locate conveniences and clean ones in real time, conversely the case of Lagos state is different the targeted people are mostly homeless illiterates, touts and miscreants with no means of accessing the App.

I remember last year when I rode to Yenagoa, this area was mostly swamp and thick bush. Almost like a place still waiting for its story to begin.
But this year, I came back with my camera and what I saw was something completely different.
I am glad I documented the progress of… pic.twitter.com/OLxn4thmpy

1710 yet I never see single one despite how small Lagos is in terms of landmass
Stop the lies

As someone from d Tech community, dis news is sweet to my soul. If people know how we chase government parastatals 2 implement innovative products Ehn, some times we even beg for a pilot program but see, is like they are anti innovation. So this right here is a win 4d community

This is governance. Thank you
Those who wants to keep making noise can continue.
Some are opportunities where others only see problems, you have a choice to be whichever suits you.
Thank you once again

‘The best way to get LASG attention is to criticise them’ No champs, Create something of value, build the network with reasonable approach, It’s not just twitter, it’s a life changing social-space, LASG remains accessible… 😊😊

The young men didn’t come online to curse out the commissioner, rather they saw a problem and proffered a workable solution and now they have an open door to actualize their dream.

This is what social media is supposed to be used for. Kudos to them and I wish them all the best

UPDATE:

The deal is sealed!

This afternoon, the Commissioner for the Environment and Water Resources, Mr. Tokunbo Wahab (@tokunbo_wahab), met with Adetokunbo Ogunnoiki (@tokunboxyz), a young innovator, who gained viral attention last Saturday for his daring proposal published… https://t.co/sMrM2XNtzL pic.twitter.com/uIJdtS1Fa8

Dear Adetokunbo Ogunnoiki,

Thank you for showing interest in Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s moves towards building cleaner Lagos and your support in protecting our environment.

I’m writing you regarding your post quoting the tweet of Honourable Commissioner for the Environment and Water Resources, Mr. @tokunbo_wahab, where he announced installation of modern public toilets across Lagos.

The Commissioner has asked me to reach out to you to discuss potential collaboration between your tech firm and the Lagos State Government. You are kindly invited to a meeting with the Commissioner this coming week.

You will have the opportunity to pitch your ideas to the Commissioner and relevant stakeholders in the Ministry, especially how you aim to provide real-time tech solutions that will ensure seamless public access to the installed public toilets.

I will send you further details via DM.

Thank you.

Dear Honorable Commissioner,
My name is Adetokunbo Ogunnoiki, and I am the founder of LooPoint which is a platform that helps individuals find clean and available public toilets in real-time, including availability, cleanliness ratings and walking directions.

I just came across this post regarding the 1,710 public toilets in Lagos and the request to businesses to open their toilets to the population, and I think LooPoint is a straight forward complement to this program.

It’s not just a matter of constructing toilets, but making, but making them findable. Currently, the greater part of the population and visitors of Lagos commot determine the closest public toilet, its status, or availability. LooPoint is the solution to this.

- We can map 1710 public toilets operated by the Lagos government, live status and rating on LooPoint.
- Businesses that are accessible rest room points include those that choose to be listed.
- Residents can use the platform without and having to download app on any device.

- The ministry also gains a data dashboard showing usage patterns, cleanliness feedback, and maintenance needs.
LooPoint is already live and working at the University of Ibadan campus.

Scalling to Lagos state is our next step and we’d love to do it in collaboration with the government rather than around it.

I would love to have a conversation at your convenience to explore what this could look like.
Kind regards

As part of our sustained efforts to eliminate open defecation and improve public sanitation across Lagos State, we currently have 1,710 functioning public toilets strategically located across the state for residents and visitors.

However, government cannot do this alone. We are… pic.twitter.com/rS6eaUjkiL
