Lack of Public Toilets Raises Concerns in Kribi, a Key Cameroonian Tourist Destination

Government authorities in Kribi, one of Cameroon’s premier tourist hubs, are facing criticism for the lack of public toilets in the bustling town renowned for its scenic beauty and vibrant tourism scene.

Situated in the South Region of Cameroon, Kribi boasts popular attractions such as the Ngo’e beach and the enchanting Lobé Waterfalls and is famous for its delectable roasted fish. Nestled at the edge of the tropical rainforest zone, Kribi graces the Gulf of Guinea along the Atlantic Ocean, drawing around 60,000 tourists annually, predominantly from Europe, America, and Asia.

Despite its tourist allure, the scarcity of adequate public toilets in Kribi has cast doubt on the efficiency of local government authorities.

“We are disappointed that a seaside town like Kribi has just about two toilets, which are all located at the beach. And it’s sad because when you get to the town itself, there is nothing,” expressed Oumar Ndoumbe in a statement to Canal 2 International.

Observers note that the insufficient facilities have compelled many to resort to relieving themselves in open areas, jeopardising the well-being of residents and visitors alike.

“For the fact that we are a seaside town, this town receives tourists from Yaounde, Douala, and Europe, to mention a few. A town like this should not lack public toilets,” emphasised Oumar Ndoumbe.

In November 2020, activists in Cameroon organised events and marches to press authorities for more public bathrooms. However, little progress has been made on this front.

Calls are now being made for authorities in Kribi to take swift action and ensure the installation of numerous public toilets to accommodate the growing tourist population and address sanitation concerns.

It’s worth noting that World Toilet Day is celebrated annually on November 19. Many Cameroonians will, therefore, be looking to see what the authorities will say about this pandemic that is impacting on the tourism industry as a whole.
