but don't you think that the figures are exaggerated
The figures mIghtfield be exaggerated but that shouldn't still negate the depressing fact that Nigeria is a terribly underdeveloped nation.

Gbam. I agree with you 100%. Most Nigerians don't know how backward the country is. Nothing works in the country except corruption, nepotism and tribal bigotry. May God help Nigeria and Nigerians.
They know but are just top gullible to accept it. Accepting total responsibility for one's life is the beginning of progress.

Nigerians are simply money-conscious. As far as they get money, nothing else matters. They're still far below in the Abraham Maslow Hierarchy of Needs.

Nigerians are simply too hypocritical and self centered to accept the truth. As you once said, " we lack conviction" undecided

It's so annoying. Most times I feel like I'm in the wrong place. No society is perfect but the madness here is simply depressing.

We lack conviction. No personal values and beliefs. All we know is money, power and vainglory. SMH!

It's unbelievable undecided

A family member is doing her trad today. The time was set for 10:00am and NO ONE has showed up. And it's all good because everyone will laugh over it and say it's NIGERIAN TIMING like it's something to be proud off undecided

Modified: it's 1:52pm and the trad still hasn't started yet

Such is the situation here. It's still part of the problem of lack of personal conviction and high level values. And you can tell a people's future by the way they respond to TIME.

BY PETER DURU, MAKURDI

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.”

Nigeria is a backward nation at the moment. God doesn't punish the truth.

That's very disgusting thing to see! Sh*t! It is time to pass a bill banning it and those who commit the crime to go to jail for a year with heavy fine. I don't care what people think about the strict law. The strict law is meant for hard times. Things need to change. We can't continue this way for ever.

What is going on in that country? When South Africans use this to laugh at us we will go berserk like it is not the truth. Jeez! I am sick and tired of this nonsense!

90% of them are Hausas. All the poor Hausas I know in Lagos live either in uncompleted buildings or on the streets. Many of them are those selling fruits and vegetables and are public transport "Okada" motorcyclists without any residence in Lagos. They use the open gutters, seasides and hidden corners of the streets as toilets. They will be stinking and they will still be smiling. Queer creatures.
