One of the country’s utility service providers, the Lilongwe Water Board (LWB), has embarked on an exercise whose aim is to get rid of sanitary structures, such as toilets, that are built close to or on top of feeder pipelines and pose health risks.
The statutory corporation, established in 1947 and reconstituted by the Act of Parliament in 1995, on Monday demolished a toilet in the capital Lilongwe that was close to some of its main delivery pipelines.

The demolished toilet had been constructed near a Puma Filling Station—in front of a Kasungu-Mzuzu make-shift bus terminus.
