The Rural Water and Sanitation Agency has said that it is targeting the year 2030, to end open defecation in the Federal Capital Territory by taking a fight against it because the FCT is still practicing it.
“I know so many of these Hakimi’s I have been to their palaces before, in fact, the government has paid for these services, like this month now, they have paid and by the first week of May, it may be paid again. So, whether they go or not the services have been paid for. So, we also employ the community to make use of it, once they are enrolled, they can go ahead to access the services, instead of going to places to buy drugs because the government has already paid for it,” Folarin stated.
“We have the FCT Scholarship board for the original indigenes of the FCT, like I said the government is making efforts but because of the population people may not see it. Also, renovations are being done, every year there are provisions for other things, and measures are taken every year to tackle these educational challenges.”
