EKO HOT BLOG reports that in order to minimize open defecation, the Lagos State Government on Tuesday spoke with toilet operators around the State on the need to constantly promote hygienic sanitation practices in toilet management.
Speaking at the maiden edition of a one-day training workshop for the operators with the theme: “Best Practices in Public Toilet Management”, held at the JJT Park, Secretariat, Alausa, the Director of Sanitation Services, Office of Environmental Services, Dr. Hassan Sanuth, reiterated that the State Government is determined to eradicate the menace of open defecation by 2025.
He said the present administration has instituted four cardinal points of operation, namely Advocacy; Regularisation & Standardisation; Bridging the Gap & Monitoring; and Evaluation & Enforcement, adding that the workshop comes under Regularisation and Standardisation.
Affirming that the government, in collaboration with A-Mobile Group Academy, is determined to achieve zero tolerance regulation for open defecation and urination, Dr. Sanuth said the training became imperative for all public toilet operators across the State in order to teach new things that bring about excellence.
The Director, therefore, charged the participants to always ensure proper handling of the toilets as this would help reduce government and individual expenditure on the treatment of diseases while making more money available for other economic uses.
