A delegate representing retired civil servants at the National Conference, Ebele Okeke, has called for measures to stop men from urinating in the open.
Ms. Okeke, a former Head of Civil Service of the Federation, made the call on Monday as her contribution to the debate on the report of the Conference Committee on Environment.
She said the act of people urinating in public is an eyesore and dangerous to the environment.
Ms. Okeke also called for measures to stop open defecation as it contributes to the spread of diseases.
She condemned the situation where landlords built houses without making provision for toilets and so encouraged open defecation.
