Abstract

This study is aimed at estimating the significant indicators and constructs that directly influence households to recover and reuse faecal waste in Ogun state Nigeria. Adopting a four-level multi-stage approach a total of 110 100 and 120 questionnaires were respectively administered in Ogijo/Likosi Ilaro I and Sodeke/ SaleIjeun II wards. The selected criteria reflect the variance in the populations of 1 250 435(33) 1 112 761(30) and 1 387 944(37) for Ogun East Ogun West and Ogun Central respectively. The pooled confirmatory factor analysis process took the form of several re-estimations based on the deletion of lowly loading factors and correlation of redundant items validation of the model assessment of normality and full structural model analysis. The structural model established a significant positive relationship between Environmental/Health Factors of Faecal Waste Reusability (EV) and Reusability Factor(RF) (0.727 p0.05) and similarly Economic Factors of Faecal Waste Reusability (EC)and Reusability Factor (RF) (0.715 p0.05). The study among all others recommends a more flexible sanitation business value chain model that is household inclusive and conforms to the paradigm of green and circular economy
