Water supply is central to good sanitation in urban areas. Public toilets especially institutions are not usable because there is no water. In the rural area, availability of open free bushy landscape and tame enforcement of "no ODF" policy, coupled with absence of public toilet facilities make ODF the best option. Community policing and public reprimand for offenders could suffice in the rural areas. I am more bothered about lack of clean toilets in our public places in the fledgling urban cities. It is worrisome when you know your child will not use a clean toilet in school or that if you are pressed in the market place, you might have to poo in your pants. I think provision of public toilets in the urban cities should be consciously privatized.
