The Functionality of the Lavatory Facilities in Naraguta Campus of the University of Jos

This study examines the functionality of lavatory facilities at Naraguta Campus, University of Jos, to identify key challenges and propose actionable improvements. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, we conducted quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews with both staff and students to assess various dimensions of lavatory functionality, including accessibility, cleanliness, maintenance, and user satisfaction. Our findings reveal significant issues related to inadequate accessibility for persons with disabilities, frequent maintenance delays, and suboptimal cleanliness standards. The study underscores the need for comprehensive enhancements in lavatory facilities to better serve the campus community. Recommendations include the implementation of more frequent cleaning schedules, the upgrade of accessibility features, and the establishment of a dedicated maintenance team. This research contributes to the broader discourse on campus facility management and offers a framework for similar assessments in other educational institutions.
