Lagosians in highbrow areas may be drinking own faeces –Investigation

A borehole contractor, Mr. Elijah Idowu, who runs Noble Fourstar Hydro Resources, explained to Saturday PUNCH the process it takes to reach a depth where drinkable water can be extracted in the Ikoyi-Victoria Island-Lekki zone.

He said, “Digging borehole is never a child’s play in that zone because you will be talking of about 500 or 700 metres before one can reach a drinkable water depth.

“We know that only few landlords can finance standard boreholes. The common 100 feet deep boreholes being financed by property owners in Lagos metropolis is nothing but shallow wells. The depth of the boreholes being drilled at LSWC is a minimum of 250 metres. This is to ensure that un-diluted water is tapped from the earth for public consumption”, Holloway noted.

Lagos: Water everywhere, none to drink

Published on Saturday, 10 September 2011 06:00

It is ironical that at a time Lagos is not only surrounded by water, but about to be swallowed by record time flood, Lagosians cannot get water to drink.
According to the United Nations Children Education Fund (UNICEF) and the Department for International Development (DFID), 20 t0 40 litres of water per person per day is considered to be the necessary minimum to meet the needs for drinking and sanitation alone.

However, the standard set by both bodies is a mirage in some parts of Lagos, the economic nerve centre of Nigeria due to increase in the population and expansion. Agege, Badia, Ijora, Ijeshatedo, Ilaje-Bariga, Orile-Iganmu, Makoko, Amukoko, Ijora and some other slums in metropolitan Lagos are in short supply of water.

Weekly Trust investigations revealed that majority of the residents depend solely on water from hawkers (Mai-ruwa) who sell a jerry-can of water for N20 and other category of users who buy direct from operators of borehole in their areas.

A resident of Orile-Iganmun Mrs. Aminat Muhammed, said getting water for domestic use is like sourcing water from a rock. “We suffer a lot to get water in this area every day. If you want to get enough water for your family, you need to wake as early as 6am, because people’s rush, every resident wants water,” she said. Who wouldn’t?

Hajia Maimunat Seriki corroborated Aminat , saying, “the borehole sunk in this area sometimes ago by some of the politicians did not last long due to lack of maintenance. Some people alleged that those who are selling water in the neighborhood destroyed the borehole so that they could continue to sell. We are yet to experience the presence of government water in this area.”

One of the private borehole operators in the area who begged for anonymity, denied destroying the public borehole provided by some of the politicians in the area. The aged man insisted that he decided to be selling water because he pitied the womenfolk and young girls who roam the neighborhood searching for water for domestic use.

According to him, selling water for residents in the neighborhood does not attract much gain as people insinuated. “I spend much money buying petrol to run generators with which we pumped water for sale most times. If not that some poor people will suffer, I would have stopped selling water, because there is nomuch gain in it,” he said.

Meanwhile, in what may come as a surprise to many residents of Lagos, in spite of few additional water works put in place by the state government, the Lagos the State Water Corporation (LSWC) has been unable to fill the gap between the demand for water by the teeming population and what the corporation supplies.

The details of the present water supply situation given by the Group Managing Director of LSWC, Engr. Shayo Holloway, how that the estimated demand for water by the over 18 million population of the state is 600 million gallons per day. He regretted that the output capacity of all the waterworks in the state is not up to half of the demand.

The many problems confronting the corporation to deliver services to the people of Lagos, Holloway pointed , are the increase in the number of people in the metropolis coupled with inadequate plants, machinery, wastage of water and reluctance to pay water bills due to people’s perception that it is a service that has to be provided free to them.

Other problems mentioned by Holloway include, lack of regular power, burst water- pipes, water theft by pure water producers, illegal connection, vandalization of pipes, inadequate customer base and shortage of manpower.

However, the LSWC boss explained that the problems of inadequate plants and machinery were being addressed by the corporation, noting that the state government has pumped substantial amount of money for the development of the corporation.

He said government efforts has been boosted through the PPP programme embarked on by the corporation the World Bank support project in rehabilitation and expansion of Iju waterworks, Adiyan, Akute and Odomola waterworks in Epe division of the state.

Meanwhile, the water engineer warned that drilling of boreholes by landlords in Lagos as an alternative source of regular supply of water is not the best. He explained that the boreholes being drilled do not meet the required standard to get germs-free water ,because these privately-owned boreholes are not deep beyond 100 feet.”At that level, there is still ground water contamination. They are nothing but shallow wells,” he said.

“We know that only few landlords can finance standard boreholes. The common 100 feet deep boreholes being financed by property owners in Lagos metropolis is nothing but shallow wells. The depth of the boreholes being drilled at LSWC is a minimum of 250 metres. This is to ensure that un-diluted water is tapped from the earth for public consumption”, Holloway noted.

Interestingly, the water engineer noted that even if the projection for adequate water supply in Lagos is met, the challenges would not have been totally conquered. He said expansion project at the waterworks will be an on-going programme due to the influx of people into the megacity.

TopGee:
Am not trying to abuse Yorubas, and I have not done that before, but I'm just trying to put straight the record.

Why don't you broaden your horizon a bit, by travelling beyond your primordial base?

"The Literature of the Whole World" (1986- )
A new policy, long on its way, had a breakthrough in the 1980s. Again, it was an attempt to understand and carry out Nobel's intentions. His will had an international horizon, though it rejected any consideration for the nationality of the candidates: the most worthy should be chosen, "whether he be Scandinavian or not". The problem of surveying the literature of the whole world was, however, overwhelming and for a long time the Academy was, with justice, to be criticized for making the award a European affair. Wirsén expressly confined himself, as we saw, to "the great figures of Continental literature". In the 1920s it was certainly laid down that the prize was "intended for the literature of the whole world" but instruments to implement the idea were not available. In the 1930s, there were, on the whole, not even reasonable nominations from the Asiatic countries and the Academy had, at that time, not yet developed a scouting system of its own.

The Prize at last to Yasunari Kawabata in 1968 illustrates the exceptional difficulties in judging literature in non-European languages - this was a matter of seven years, involving four international experts. In 1984, however, Gyllensten declared that attention to non-European writers was gradually increasing in the Academy; attempts were being made "to achieve a global distribution". This includes measures to strengthen the competence for the international task.

[b]The picture of the Academy's Eurocentric policy was also significantly altered by the choices of Wole Soyinka from Nigeria in 1986 and Naguib Mahfouz from Egypt in 1988. Later practice shows the extension to Nadine Gordimer from South Africa, to Kenzaburo Oe from Japan, to Derek Walcott from St. Lucia in the West Indies, to Toni Morrison, the first Afro-American on the list, and to Gao Xingjian, the first laureate to write in Chinese. It is, however, important that nationality is not involved in the discussion. It has sometimes been suggested that the Academy should first decide upon a neglected language and then seek out the best candidate in it. Doing so would amount to politization of the Prize. Instead, efforts are being made to widen the horizon so that, in the course of the normal process of judgement, it is possible to weigh sometimes a prominent Nigerian dramatist and poet, sometimes an Egyptian novelist, against candidates from closer parts of the linguistic atlas – with all such evaluations continuing to be made on literary grounds. Critics have quite often neglected the Academy's striving for political integrity. Naturally, an international prize can have political effects but it must not, according to this jury, carry any political intention.
[/b]

The criteria discussed sometimes alternate, sometimes coincide. The spotlight on the unknown master Canetti in 1981 is thus followed by the laurel to the universally hailed "pioneer" of magic realism, Gabriel García Márquez, in 1982. Some Laureates answer both requirements, like Faulkner, who was not only "the great experimentalist among twentieth-century novelists" – the Academy was here fortunate enough to anticipate Faulkner's enormous importance to later fiction - but also, in 1950, a fairly unknown writer. On this occasion, the Prize, for once, could help a great innovator outside the limelight to reach his potential disciples as well as his due audience. The surprising Prize to Dario Fo in 1997 can also be said to have a double address: it was given to a genre which had earlier been left out in the cold but also to the brilliant innovator of that genre.

Probably most people don't know the reason why Wole Soyinka was given Noble Prize Award. It was obvious that the Late Chinue Achebe was the favourite to win Noble Prize ahead of Wole Soyinka but Chinue Achebe was denied the award because he was the only person in Africa that stood and criticized the Western countries of been biased in giving award. He told them that in giving award, they should not only judge based on their {Western}perception of writing, but they should also look at it based on African perception.

This did not go down well with the Western countries who knew that the Late Chinue Achebe had exposed their biased judgement. So, to punish Chinue Achebe, they looked for his rival Wole Soyinka who was far behind the Late Achebe and gave him the Noble Prize thinking that would provoke hard feelings on Late Chinue Achebe.

Before then, nobody from Africa had won the award, and it was after Late Chinue Achebe criticized them that they decided to give it to Wole Soyinka. The Late Chinue Achebe was well known in the world than Wole Soyinka in everything.

So, when you are looking for corruption, you should look at the entire stratum of the society, while some forms of corruption are direct, others are indirect.
