摘要

环境卫生被定义为管理男性身体环境中可能损害其身体、认知或社会健康的任何方面。将良好的环境卫生做法灌输给公民一直是尼日利亚政府最关心的问题,现在仍然是,为了实现这一目标,尼日利亚各级政府颁布了几项法律。尽管有许多这样的法律,但尼日利亚遵守环境卫生法的情况仍处于最低点。尼日利亚目前的环境卫生状况反映出,这些法律在被搁置的情况下得到了更多的遵守,许多人认为遵守是愚蠢的行为,而不是必要的邪恶。本研究所使用的方法是描述性的和教条主义的。本文讨论了尼日利亚的环境卫生问题,并审查了实现尼日利亚清洁的现有法律制度。本文认为,拥有一个清洁的尼日利亚是可以实现的,并断言尼日利亚需要自下而上的环境卫生立法方法来实现这一目标。建议建立一个参与式的社区卫生立法模块,以确保人们了解这些法律的重要性,因为他们掌握了这一过程的所有权,而不是依赖政府来实施。

Are The Laws for Us or Against Us? Reinventing Environmental Sanitation Laws in Nigeria
Environmental sanitation has been defined as managing any aspects of a man's physical environment that might harm his physical, cognitive, or social health. Indoctrinating good environmental sanitation practices into its citizenry has been and remains a foremost concern for the Nigerian government, with several laws enacted at levels of government to achieve this target. Although there are many of these laws, compliance with environmental sanitation laws remains at its lowest ebb in Nigeria. Nigeria's current environmental sanitation situation reflects that these laws are obeyed more in abeyance, with many viewing compliances as a fool's errand rather than a necessary evil. The method used in this research is descriptive and doctrinal. This paper discusses the issue of environmental sanitation in Nigeria and examines the existing legal system for achieving a cleaner Nigeria. This paper posits that having a clean Nigeria is achievable and asserts that a bottom-up approach to environmental sanitation lawmaking in Nigeria is needed to achieve this goal. A participatory community module for sanitation lawmaking is recommended to ensure that the people understand the importance of these laws by taking ownership of the process rather than depending on the government for its actualization.
