Neversaydie: Minister of Water Resources, Mrs Sarah Och-ekpe had assured that the challenges facing the water sector in the country would be over by 2025.

The minister gave this assurance while speaking at a one-day workshop for stakeholders on the validation of Plateau State water supply, sanitation and hygiene policy.
Och-ekpe urged participants at the forum organized to study the document for water policy in the state and come up with a policy for better water services.
Plateau State governor, Mr Jonah Jang who was represented by the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Professor Shedrack Best, blamed the  cause of inadequate water supply on outdated equipment, shortage of manpower, among others.
According to him, his administration had awarded N8 billion contract to enhance  quality water supply within the state. He added  that the state was also in partnership with other foreign non-governmental organizations (NGOs), to provide quality water to the people in order to eradicate water borne diseases in the State.

Nigerian State’s Proposed Borehole Ban
Sparks Controversy
11 Jun 2012 - 00:00 by OOSKAnews
Correspondent
NIGERIA, ABUJA — Lagos state, home to
Nigeria’s largest urban area and commercial
capital, last week became the latest state in
the country to propose a ban on drilling
boreholes for water.
Lagos State Governor Babatunda Fashola on
June 6 called for “shutting down of
boreholes because they have long-term
environmental impacts and damage our
state and people.”
The ban would apply to individuals and
private companies.
The proposal came shortly after national
Water Minister Sarah Ochekpe was quoted
saying there was “a high possibility” that
the federal government would impose a
similar ban, or at least regulate “the extent
to which they were constructed.”
Fashola urged water consumers in Lagos
utilize water supplied by Lagos Water
Corporation, said to be Africa’s largest water
provider, rather than digging their own
wells.
The corporation’s managing director, Shayo
Holloway, had previously warned that
continued borehole drilling for water supply
was an unsustainable practice and posed a
danger to the would-be beneficiaries.
“Domestic boreholes are affecting water
production because [they] pollute the water
when they are abandoned and refuse is
dumped into them,” he said.
The Lagos Water Corporation is working
toward a goal of supplying more than 700
millions of gallons a day to customers by
building at least 15 new mini-waterworks
over the next 10 years.
Currently, the company provides an
estimated 200 million gallons of water every
day, while demand is about 500 million
gallons/day.
It is estimated that more than 70 percent of
the Nigerian population lacks access to a
reliable clean water supply.
Recently, Water Minister Ochekpe said the
country would need more than $2.5 billion
USD to meet increasing demand for water.
Earlier, a survey carried out by the University
of Maiduguri in the capital and largest city of
Borno State confirmed that the increase in
the number of boreholes there, as in other
parts of Nigeria, was due to the inability by
the federal and regional government to
meet demand.

If you think you have bore hole and you are save wait till they implement this.

What about vision 20-20-20? If Nigerians will have adequate water in 2025, then let's forget about being among the first 20 developed countries in the world by 2020. Such a vision can only become a mirage.

Are you really that silly?....do you think it's possible to give the whole Nigeria of over 160 million people adequate water supply in two months??.....like!! The reasoning of some folks here are just plain dumb!....
