THE United Nations Children’s Fund, UNICEF, has disclosed that over 50million Nigerians do not have access to toilets hence resort to open defecation.

The world body also revealed that Nigeria ranks among the five countries in the world with the greatest rates of open defecation.

This was made known in a report issued yesterday by Ijeoma Onuoha-Ogwe, UNICEF ‘A Field Office’ Communication Officer (Advocacy, Media and External Relations) on behalf of Sanjay Wijesekera, head of UNICEF’s global water, sanitation and hygiene programmes, to coincide with World Toilet Day.

The report titled, Improving Nutrition Outcomes with Better Water, Sanitation and Hygiene, pointed out the emerging evidence of links between inadequate sanitation and malnutrition among children.

Wijesekera was quoted as saying that “Nigeria loses over 150,000 children to diarrhea annually. After pneumonia, it is the biggest killer of Nigeria’s under-fives; 88 per cent of diarrhoea cases in Nigeria are attributed to unsafe water and sanitation. Where rates of toilet use are low, rates of diarrhoea tend to be high.

“Intestinal parasites such as roundworm, whipworm and hookworm are transmitted through contaminated soil in areas where open defecation is practiced. Hookworm is a major cause of anaemia in pregnant women, leading to malnourished, underweight babies.

“We need to bring concrete and innovative solutions to the problem of where people go to the toilet, otherwise we are failing millions of our poorest and most vulnerable children.”

Makes me remember Baba Afeez for my area, the man like to dey piss for gutter than using the toilet.

That's very bad. Disease will spread so easily in a community with this kind of toilet system. The government should provide public toilets for the rural areas and employ people to maintain the structures too.

Everybody has a price just that some are too timid to name theirs. And Frederick Bestiat captured this thought when he said, " everyone wants to live at the expense of others.

You are obsessed with that name. You know your people are the major culprits and they need your help for an improved environmental health standard. Bashing the Igbos for every of your failure will not help.

When government realize that 'shit is also a natural resource' it will do well in building and properly managing Public toilets so that the methane emissions from the sewage can power some street lights around the place at night.

Let he who has not done it in the bush b4 show him self.

Out of the 50 million, 49.9million will be from the Waste region of the South.
