President Muhammadu Buhari is set to launch a campaign to end open defecation in Nigeria by 2025, Chizorma Opara, the Acting Coordinator, Clean Nigeria-Use the Toilet Campaign, has said.
“In 2018, Mr President, on November 8, had declared a state of emergency in the sector and also with emphasis that Nigeria must end open defecation by 2025. She said that the statistics had drastically reduced as high as over four hundred million people who now use toilets. Mrs Opara, however, noted that on May 8, the Federal Executive Council also approved the campaign, following the approval of the president to inaugurate the campaign through a national launch, adding that “this is what we are all working towards now’’.
According to her, validation is a process of a community or a local government becoming open defecation free and it is the responsibility of the group on sanitation to actually validate that process.
