Another ploy by government to ban boreholes or impose high taxes on boreholes courtesy world bank. Boreholes are better than public water schemes.

As for 2% open defecation it is one of the lowest in Africa.

https://independent.ng/oyo-vows-to-eradicate-open-defecation-by-2028/

LAGOS – The Oyo State government has vowed to intensify efforts and align with its 2022 roadmap to attain Open Defecation-Free (ODF) status objective by 2028.

Recall that in the southwest, Oyo State currently leads in the open defecation menace with 54% of its eight million population engaging in the act; according to the National Bureau of Statistics.

`Ekiti State is the second in the region with 41% of its population engaging in open defecation .

It is followed by Ondo at 39%, Osun at 18%; Ogun stands at 14% while Lagos State is the lowest with (three) 3%.


The 2021 Water Sanitation and Hygiene National Outcome Routine Mapping (WASHNORM) report also revealed that about 5,020,920 residents, representing 53.7 percent of the total population in Oyo State, practice open defecation, while about 3,621,520, representing 43 percent use unimproved toilet facilities.

The report also disclosed that only 8.4 percent of households have access to basic hand-washing services.

All the people from that region are considered obi zombies with their neo fascist ideology menace....

You can't say same for other regions in this country.

The report is a fabrication of some sort for the NGOs and the ministries to receive subvention of some kind. I know Abia State at the tip of my finger and can comfortably ascertain the availability of private boreholes which cost so little or moderately to dig.
Almost every house has a borehole. I wonder where/how they manufacture some of these news

You're a liar.
Why do we Igbos come online to lie repeatedly just to inflate egos.
Our region is underdeveloped, and we should blame our leaders for it.

I'm from Anambra.
The Peter Ob that every Igbo man is promoting today was a big calamity when he was a governor.
You are a pathetic liar. You are not from Anambra.

Non sense. Did you even read the article?? It's said on 2% do open defecation, hence the main cause should be misplaced placement of boreholes. I believe government will handle that easily.

That's the problem. Boreholes are more dangerous than you think. And everyone has boreholes and soak away tanks in their compounds. Just across the fence your neighbor's soak away might be closer to your borehole than you think. Any state governor that can not provide at least 70% public water scheme for his state is useless and dangerous

Which Nigeria governor provides even 25% public water including super rich Lagos state?
People are providing for their essential needs those who can't are drinking from whatever source they can.

The report isn't disputing the availability of private boreholes as highlighted by your mention rather most subsurface or surface water in Abia has been contaminated by faeces. Now, that's not an attack on Abians but a call to action from every stakeholders in the state
A lot of you guys, your psyches have been wired to infer any matter that arises from your region as a direct attack on your person.
