“It is condemnable that a state capital like Lokoja, will stay without water.

“Open defecation as become alarming rate in Lokoja town and across the state.

“Refuse are scattered across the town, without the evacuation as at when due, worst of all is the refuse dump sites have remain unkept without proper management.

“We call on state of Emergency on water and sanitation in Kogi State, without further delay.

“We recommend, specific date for cleaning specific market and all markets, which can not be done on the same day across board.

“This will not cost government beyond supervision, as all markets and motor parks should have a specific days and time for cleaning that will improve sanitation in those places.
