Date: 2016-08-06

The Elegosi of Egosi in Oke-Ero Local Government Area of Kwara State, Oba Daniel Adefila Dada, has commended members of Egosi Women of Substance for the donation of a toilet facility to the community.

He gave the commendation during the handing over of the facility worth one million naira in a ceremony that attracted traditional chiefs and other distinguished members of the community. The monarch said members of the association had, by the gesture, demonstrated their commitment to the well-being of the people of the community.

The facility is composed of two female and two male toilet units, and equipped with standard water system and overhead tanks. The president of the association, Mrs Folake Adetona, in her remark, said the gesture was part of the association's corporate social responsibility towards improving the living standard of the people .

She said the facility would curb open defecation occasioned by lack of public toilets, adding that this would go a long way in checking the outbreak of diseases. According to her, following the large turnout of people during the association's free healthcare service in the community, members were inspired to donate generously to complete the project.

"Members resolved not to relent in giving back to the society after the successful execution of the free healthcare service organised by our association a year ago. "We want our people to enjoy sound health and one of the ways to achieve this is to provide a standard toilet facility for public use," she said.

The Chief Nursing Officer, Cottage Clinic, Iloffa, Mrs Grace Afolayan, said public toilet was a critical aspect of community development. Also commenting, the President of Egosi Development Union (EDU), Ayinla Lawal, described the gesture as worthy of emulation by other groups and well meaning individuals.

He urged the people to make good use of the facility by imbibing maintenance culture. The Odofin of Egosi kingdom, Chief Sunday Adetona, in his goodwill message, commended the association for being sensitive to the yearnings of the people of the community.
