In commemoration of the World Toilet Day, officials of the Abuja Environmental Protection Board (AEPB) have carried out a road walk to sensitize residence against the practice of open defecation.
The event was held on Wednesday, November 20, within the City Centre where the AEPB officials were carrying banners with different inscriptions, distributing flyers to people.
The flyer reads: SAY NO TO OPEN DEFECATION. SAY YEST TO HYGIENE. USE THE TOILET.
In 2019 the theme is ‘Leaving no one behind’, which is the central theme of the Sustainable Development Goals. Themes in previous years include nature-based solutions, wastewater, toilets and jobs, and toilets and nutrition. World Toilet Day is marked by communications campaigns and other activities.
