” We are also worried, it seems there is no demarcation between the Sanitation Board and the company expected to clean Lokoja Town.

“As in many occasions, the government vehicles are beign used by private company engaged to clean the city.

” Worst of it all, is the unavailability of potable water in Kogi State, particularly in Lokoja that host both river Nija and Benue.

“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.

“We call stakeholders conference on environment sanitation in Kogi state that will generate ideals on how to move this all important sector forward, that will include genuine professionals and relevant stakeholders.”
