Bio-Power Environmental Solutions Ltd says the establishment of high-quality public toilets can generate revenue, create 11,000 jobs and promote a healthier environment in the country.

Yomi Awoniyi, country manager of the company made this known to NAN in an interview.

Awoniyi said construction of high-quality toilets with effective treatment would encourage sustainability of such toilets and support healthier environment in the society.

He said one of the objectives of the company was to ensure a healthy environment by producing anti-septic products such as Bio-Sol SL36 for treating toilets and environment.

He said the product was an organic solution without chemically based product used in treating of pit toilets, septic tanks, restaurants, industries, schools, hospitals among others.

“We have working model, which by treating 20,000 toilets we can generate as much as 11,000 jobs particularly since we are committed to ensuring a healthier environment,” he said.

“Also, in as much as the products are of a good quality, there is this possibility of job opportunities for our unemployed youth.

“This product actually eliminates unnecessary odour and reduces the level of the faeces in the pit latrines and that is the major objective of our product.”

He said the company was producing a new Flush-Tech Sanitation System whereby a fixed quantity of water was being recycled through such process to ensure that toilets always preserved water.

The country manager explained that the system would help to address the challenge of using toilet without water to clean the toilets.

He said the company had started distributing the products to people for public buildings and industries.

Awoniyi said the company was committed to creating strong awareness on the importance of keeping toilets tidy.

He said the essence of the sensitisation was to let people know the dangers involved in using dirty toilets as well as living in an unhealthy environment.

“We are committed to advocate for change and connecting the society into knowledge and experience to help people building a better life,” he said.
