Very true especially in the west where they don't have pipe borne water, they drink from untreated wells which is worst during rainy seasons due to poor drainage.
Everything drains into the wells and they keep drinking from it

Not again. Evil report here and there

obowo69:
Nigerians need to start travelling more to other African countries. They will come back feeling very different about Nigeria.

Onye Obowo, I dey greet o.

Before nko? Since mid-80's, Nigerians have been OYO when it comes to water.

I just can't imagine how our leaders will be proud to know they can't just open tap and drink water. It's like they didn't grow up in modern ages. They are able to buy bottle water or their own filtration, and it's OK... no pride in yourself as a black man to provide for your own people.

Afromentalist:
Maybe the researchers just visited lagos and said: Dayumm, we are done with this shit

What about power food supply, poor power supply, poor health care supply, poor road network, poor security network, poor education provision, poor or leadership failure

Fortuna2:
My undergraduate project was on quality of water supply in Southwest Nigeria (research findings already published). More than 70% Nigerians lack access to potable water and suffer water borne diseases frequently. Anyways, our government isn't bothered, why should I??

your findings is cool but my assumption is 95% lack access to good water supply.... gbammmm

It's called redundancy na... we already know we lead in anything poor.

NaijadrivaCars:


Nigeria seems to be the capital of almost every indicator of very poor governance. Is it health, education, etc

Continue voting for bad leaders and keep getting the same results.

What do you expect from the poverty capital of the world? Anyways, are you a car dealer and do you do giveaways?

And the vagabonds in power are talking about banning generators.

You Never See Nothing.. You Go Smell Pepper You Zoogerians

Drinking dirty water from childhood boosts our immunity. That is why we don't have a huge coronavirus spread. Other countries should emulate us if they want to avoid future pandemics.

You may be right..that's why I said more than 70% (i.e. > 70%).

Wow, see the wonderful job @GenBuhari is doing

Nigeria leads in everything bad

And this is a country with a ministry of water resources

This country is a shithole

Blue3k2:


The issue with alot of Nigerians is they dont even demand better services from their state utilities. These state utilities dont even cover a whole local government. Then you'll see alot states opt for projects like airports, stadiums, churches etc before thinking of can we expand water supply.

GBAM!

U CRAZY MAN... I WAS LAUGHING OUT LOUD IN D OFFICE.

Good performance!

First position no be beans!

I remember those days in primary school!

GMB is really trying.

They should have privatized all the State Water Corporations a long time ago. Water supply is privatized in the developed nations of the World. The Federal and State Governments do not have any business with Water distribution to the citizens of Nigeria. There are a lot of Government owned institutions that must be privatized in Nigeria. Governments all over the World are not generally good at running Companies. Water and Energy supply in the UK, USA etc are handled by private Companies and Corporations. Cheers.

Blue3k2:


That's not true. NOI polls examined all the geopolitical regions. There's also other researchers looked at the states holistically.

Baba don't take it serious, I was joking

And when you come down to Nigeria, I think Lagos is the worst. Not even the expensive VI and Lekki are left out. The government has a huge task in this regard.

Maxymilliano:
And this is a country with a ministry of water resources

The Federal Ministry of Water Resources and State Ministries of Water Resources should be research institutes, not Water Production and Distribution Companies. They should exist for research purposes only. They should just be giving data to the government and private companies to work with when it comes to water issues.

Nigeria is always leading in
negativity

Ministry of water resources both at federal and state levels should be scrap with immediate effect, since Nigerians can now provide water for themselves. Waste of resources

Indeed there was a country.... Which way Naija?

70% of Britain's Water Companies are owned by foreign companies. The UK government is not involved in producing and supplying water to the British people. There are about 25 water suppliers ( Private firms ) covering Scotland, Wales and England. The water supplier you will use depends on the area of the UK you live in. Many of the UK's water companies are owned by companies from other nations who have invested in Britain's Water Industry. Why can't we do the same in Nigeria?

Yes, people have wells and boreholes in their homes in Nigeria. That is true. However, many areas of Nigeria are still unwatered, so to speak. It is high time private companies from advanced countries are invited to invest in the Water Industry of Nigeria. We have done it with TV Cable, Mobile Telephony and Internet Providers. Why not completely privatize water supply to homes in Nigeria? It will be a great move by the Federal Government.

I cant remember the last time Nigerian government supplied water to residents or citizens.
Nigerian citizens get their water supply via borehole never from government.
Ghana have had water. And their water u need to treat it by yourself before use. Unless it depends on the company that supplied water.
