Harpic, FG Restate Commitment To Open Defecation Free Nigeria

Harpic, toilet cleaning brand manufactured by Reckitt, said it has collaborated with federal government and others for 2022 World Toilet Summit with commitment to open defecation free Nigeria and improving access to clean and hygienic toilets.

Harpic announced it will be participating as a sponsor and exhibitor in the upcoming 2022 World Toilet Summit (WTS) holding in Nigeria for the first time, in commemoration of this year’s World Toilet Day, along with other partners.

The World Toilet Summit billed to hold in Abuja on November 18 and 19, 2022, is a global platform that will bring together policymakers, industry and thought leaders, developmental agencies, and other sector leaders to deliberate on policies and actionable steps for addressing the challenges of Open Defecation, and safely managed sanitation services affecting 3.6 billion people globally.

The summit is being hosted by the federal government in collaboration with the World Toilet Organisation (WTO), and the Organized Private Sector in Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (OPS-WASH).

As a sponsor, Harpic said it will join diverse stakeholders across the Sanitation ecosystem to drive the conversation for this year’s summit, with the theme: “Sanitation Innovations for Economic Development”.

“It would be recalled that in May this year, Harpic launched the pocket-friendly toilet cleaner sachet at an affordable price of N30.00 to enable access to all consumers to experience the superior quality of Harpic and the health benefits of sanitation hygiene.
